In response to this post@bicmay 'One student who led the research, Dia Kapoor, told Alice she was moved to develop the AI training after a doctor she shadowed gave what she considered inadequate options counseling to a pregnant 14-year-old.
“She just did the ultrasound scan, said ‘Congrats!’ and sent her on her way,” Kapoor recalled. “She didn’t ask if she wanted the pregnancy. She didn’t ask if she was unhoused or food-insecure — nothing.”'
Words escape me.

I know! When I teach interviewing skills about this, I definitely point out a positive pregnancy test may not be positive news to everyone.
