"We're thrilled that it's being recognized not only for the strength of its writing and message, but for how it offers a clear framework for responsible AI that centers ethics, equity, and real-world patient impact, reminding us that who designs the tools matters. We hope it continues to reach readers beyond the healthcare sector, equipping more people to ask better questions, demand accountable systems, and ensure innovation serves human dignity during this consequential transformation in modern medicine."
