Many thanks to Peter Birch for having me as a guest and the great chat. For the record, I do think Sparked AU is nailing the stakeholder engagement and communication by managing the people dimension of the process very well. I confess that my instinct is to throw technology at anything I see, but there is a community driven starting point here, which would amplify the work that's done for the EHDS. Same goes for AI in EHDS: it is a knowledge amplifier, not human replacement. I will keep repeating this: the bridge between the central EHDS work and the trenches should be established by the standards communities, guided by the leadership of those standards: openEHR International Health Level Seven International HL7 Europe SNOMED International / Jordi Piera Jiménez Rachel Hicks Don Sweete Then, vendors such as Ocean Health Systems can really help.
