What to expect in Chicago Med season 8 episode 12?
The trailer for season 8 episode 12, We All Know What They Say About Assumptions, dropped on Thursday, January 12, 2023, a day after the 11th episode titled It Is What It Is, Until It Isn't went on air.
According to the 13-second-long clip, We All Know What They Say About Assumptions will deal with the theme of “Man v/s Machine,” where tech guru and hospital in-charge Jack Dayton wants to implement AI all over the hospital.
Dr. Dean Archer, an experienced trauma surgeon, is so opposed to it that he refuses to use OR 2.0 technology during surgery. The trailer's climax occurs when an enraged Dayton informs Archer, "You're fired!"

Is Chicago Med renewal happening?
NBC did not announce the renewal of Chicago Med at the recent Winter Television Critics Association Presentation, leaving fans of the show concerned. However, the good news is that the network has not canceled the drama as well.
Chicago Med finished 2022 as the second most-watched program of the season, just behind its close cousin Chicago Fire. Chicago Med reportedly attracted an impressive 8.7 million viewers, resulting in solid ratings.
With this in place, the show will be in good shape by the time it reaches its current season's finale. Season eight's finale should air around the middle of March, so we might find out if the show will be renewed or canceled then.
