Other suggestions included sharing agendas in advance, limiting attendance and using silent brainstorming via chat or shared documents.

Utah draws scrutiny with pilot allowing AI to renew some psychiatric prescriptions
Utah will start a one-year pilot this month in which an AI system renews prescriptions for some psychiatric drugs without a doctor visit. The program is limited to 15 low-risk maintenance medicines and stable patients with existing prescriptions, excluding recent medication changes and recent psychiatric hospitalisations. Users must verify identity and prescriptions, and clinicians review out-of-scope cases. Some psychiatrists warned a chatbot could miss clinical nuances.
