Course overview:
Talk Title: The Intelligence Shift: Navigating the Future of Veterinary Care with AI
Description:
The veterinary profession is at a breaking point, caught between a surging demand for care and a chronic shortage of time. Artificial Intelligence is no longer a futuristic "maybe"—it is the fundamental shift required to move from reactive burnout to proactive medicine.

In this session, Aaron Massecar explores the trajectory of Veterinary AI, moving beyond simple voice-to-text notes into the realms of predictive diagnostics, automated client communication, and real-time clinical decision support. We will dive into:
  • The Three Waves of AI: From administrative automation to augmented clinical intelligence.
  • The Human-AI Partnership: How to use technology to actually increase empathy and "hands-on" time with patients.
  • The Covet Roadmap: How Covet is building the bridge between today’s fragmented data and tomorrow’s seamless, AI-integrated practice.
Attendees will leave with a clear understanding of where the industry is headed and how to leverage Covet’s ecosystem to stay ahead of the curve without losing the "heart" of their practice.
