The premise
AI can simulate hesitant-patient personas and score a clinician's reflective listening, while real persuasion still depends on relationship.
What AI does well here
- Generate role-play personas spanning specific hesitancy reasons (religious, safety, distrust, access).
- Score transcripts against an MI fidelity rubric and surface missed reflections.
What AI cannot do
- Replace lived community trust between a clinician and a patient.
- Predict which patient will accept a vaccine after one conversation.
