Beyond the Prompt: Why Medical Affairs AI Is Stuck at Email — and What Actually Unlocks It
Scott Thompson breaks down why prompt training hasn't changed how Medical Affairs teams work, and the four things that actually unlock AI beyond the prompt.
Upcoming Live Webinar
October 1st, 11:00 am - 12:00 pm ET
Every Medical Affairs team has been trained on prompts by now. Most have run the workshops, worked through the frameworks, and watched usage numbers climb. Six months later, the actual work often looks the same: emails draft faster, slides come together in less time, but how the team plans, engages, and reports hasn't changed. That gap isn't a prompt problem. It's a design problem.
Scott Thompson (CEO, Acceleration Point) has spent the last several years teaching Medical Affairs leaders to use AI platforms, building agents for medical teams, and deploying AI inside real Medical Affairs organizations. In this session, he walks through four things that actually unlock AI in Medical Affairs, none of which live inside a prompt: the harness AI works inside, the context it draws on, the skills a team codifies once and reuses, and the connections that let AI act instead of just advise. Attendees will see real examples of teams operating at each level and leave with a self-assessment to identify which of the four is holding their team back.

What You'll Learn
- The harness: where AI does its work inside your workflows, with the right guardrails, instead of a stand-alone chat window
- The context: what AI knows about your therapeutic areas, plans, and documents, so outputs sound like your team instead of the internet
- The skills: the repeatable, codified ways of working your team builds once and reuses
- The connections: the systems where medical work actually happens, so AI can act instead of only advise
- A self-assessment to identify which of the four is holding your team back today, and what to do about it first
