In Burnout
Read a study showing how ambient AI scribes are transforming clinical workflows
The Permanente Medical Group rolled out ambient AI scribes to fight clinician burnout—and the results are striking. In just one year, over 7,000 physicians used AI scribes across 2.5 million patient visits, saving nearly 16,000 hours of documentation time. Adoption was strong across specialties and experience levels, and satisfaction stayed high even after a vendor switch. With physicians and patients both seeing the benefits, TPMG is doubling down on expansion and continued innovation.
Call Center Burnout is Rising
High stress, emotional fatigue, and rapid turnover are taking a measurable toll on performance and customer experience. Agents are often the emotional front line of a company, managing complex conversations under pressure. As organizations look for new ways to support their teams, AI is beginning to play a role — not to replace people, but to recognize patterns of strain, flag early signs of burnout, and help leaders intervene before it’s too late.
