New survey findings from the Canadian Medical Association are raising concerns about Canadians turning to artificial intelligence for health advice. The data suggests many people are using AI tools because they are faster and easier than navigating the traditional health system, yet those who follow AI-generated advice report higher rates of harm.

CMA president-elect Dr. Bolu Ogunyemi joins the program to unpack what the survey actually shows, what qualifies as harm, and why trust in online health information is becoming more complicated. We also explore whether AI is creating new risks or revealing deeper access challenges inside Canada’s health system.
