[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, the Republicans pushed through a bill banning regulation of AI for 10 years.  What could possibly go wrong with AI involved in health care?

Aren't we already sort of there though?  I had to go in for a sleep study.  All they did was make me watch a YouTube video, take home a recording device I had to setup on my own, and then I just returned the device that recorded the data.

I have no idea why I paid doctors fees to interpret a little bit of data that could probably be easily done by a simple program. The office employed so many people. And to do what? Hand people a box with a machine and show them where the link was for a YouTube vid?

There are so many unnecessary functions and jobs that can and probably should be automated away in healthcare.  Yes, I know this is bad for employment. But honestly, what value are so many jobs providing that are driving up costs for things like HC? [/quote]

Be glad they now allow most sleep studies (except for kids and extreme cases) to be done at home.  Much better results when you are not sleeping in a strange room with noise everywhere.  
And yes, the computer can interpret the results and then a doctor looks them over.  Save the doctor for extreme cases.
