Says who? All the doctors in my family, most of whom are surgeons, are very concerned about the rise in AI being used to diagnose patients, for instance. Entire teams of specialists can be rendered redundant as AI gets better at analyzing disparate symptoms to identify the body systems affected and likely underlying causes that can take human doctors years to diagnose. [b]The encroachment on the medical field is already significant.[/b] [/quote]

No. I appreciate you have family members who are doctors, but I am a doctor. AI isn't encroaching significantly onto healthcare. Sorry. Cite it, if you think you have other reasons besides anecdote.

OpenEvidence is helpful. There are places in radiology and pathology reporting where a first pass with AI is sometimes helpful. Where else?

That being said, I'm a [i]doctor[/i]. Of course, if there is a better way to provide health care to people, I'm all for it. I'm sure we will get there eventually. Heck, if there were no illnesses, accidents, or aging, I'd be out of a job -- and that would be [i]great[/i]. Putting me out of work would be a fantastic endgame.

Until then, I'm not going to lose my mind, soil myself, or whatever it is you think I should be doing at the prospect. Not going to change the outcome anyway. [/quote]
What kind of doctor are you and how long ago did you complete your residency? Your response is completely out of touch and you're clearly not staying up on recent developments in medicine. [/quote]

Okay, I'll answer your questions after you answer the question I [b]already[/b] asked: where else (other than pathology and radiology, and that as just first pass) is AI "encroaching significantly onto healthcare?"

Again -- cite it, if you think you have other reasons for believing this besides "my dad said" anecdotes.[/quote]
