Flight Deck Medicine: The Clinician's Definitive Guide to Cognitive Alignment with AI
Rubin Pillay, MD, PhD
Flight Deck Medicine applies the proven safety frameworks of aviation — verification, trust calibration, situational awareness, confident override — to the daily realities of AI-augmented clinical practice. Through real case studies, integrated workbook exercises, and a structured five-phase curriculum, Dr. Rubin Pillay gives clinicians the cognitive tools to work safely, effectively, and defensibly alongside clinical AI. From reading a confidence score to executing an IDAR override to auditing an algorithm for racial bias, this is the definitive practical guide to being the pilot in command of modern medicine.
