Last year was the year of AI, especially in the entrepreneur world. It's all about things being faster, easier, and automated. And this has been happening with birth for years. We’ve gotten so far away from mother nature's birth that we’ve completely changed what birth looks like. And it’s not good for most mothers and babies.

In this episode I discuss:
- Automation fails from content creators.
- The hospital is the most advanced option for birth and it's hurting moms and babies
- The American College of Nurse Midwives statement on technology use in birth
- How evidence shows that more isn't better in birth, and still automation is prioritized
- The worst applications of technology in birth that we have today
