About This Podcast
In this episode of Conversations with Zena, My AI Colleague, digital health leader RJ Kedziora, co-founder and COO of Estenda Solutions, joins David and Zena to explore how AI is quietly rewiring healthcare and what a truly intelligent, human-centered health system could look like.
Starting from RJ’s personal goal of living “100+ with good quality of life,” the discussion moves from everyday habits—eating like your grandparents, moving more, sleeping deeply, staying social—to how AI and wearables can transform those intentions into real, data-driven results.
You’ll hear concrete examples of AI already at work in clinics today, from ambient listening tools that free doctors from their keyboards to rigorously validated digital therapeutics that can be prescribed and reimbursed like drugs. The trio also tackles the tough questions: self-diagnosis and mental health chatbots, privacy and HIPAA, the economics of “sick care,” and RJ’s bold assertion that it may soon be irresponsible not to use AI in healthcare.
