[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My friend who works for Walmart in Arkansas told me his leaving his job this August primarily due to AI. He said his current functions will be taken 100% by AI.

He sent me a copy of his resume and if every person he is going to be competing with is as qualified as him we are all f***d.

I think we are entering a new scary era. [b]Of course if you are doctor, nurse, teacher you are safe.[/b] Everyone else God help us. My friend told me his team was training their AI system for months and it's so good that he is stunned![/quote]

No. Not safe at all.

For example, there might be almost no radiologists at all in 5 years. Differential diagnosis will be done by AI, as will treatment plans. Doctors won't actually be needed for much of anything. [/quote]
I think there’s still more runway for jobs in medicine/nursing that deal with the actual physical handling of patients. The people at the hospital who do the intubating, the bathing, the ones who stick the needles in. Doctors of physical therapy.[/quote]

Yeah, I actually know quite a bit about AI in healthcare.  There will still be doctors, even radiologists.  But it will probably mean the good ones work more efficiently and expand their reach, increasing quality, and perhaps fewer roles that impact the lower performing/lower ability.  [/quote]

Is there a massive shortage of doctors anyway?[/quote]
