Human Dr to patient - You just puked. Let’s find out why.
AI - Nothing AI can’t see and reason in real time.
Human Dr sees patient collapse. Does CPR.
AI - Nothing AI can’t see or do CPR
Human Dr sees patient- Discusses patients with other doctor who knows patient and discussed the fact that a parent was beating the shit of the patient. Shows empathy Adapts care regimen
AI - Nothing.
No doctor knows what will happen to a patient when it steps in their office. They have a real time identification and response skill set that AI can’t and won’t have.
SDOH will always matter.
I don’t see a world where AI has judgement and can know the outcomes of its decisions without a human in the loop..
I’m obviously not a doctor, but there will be no point where real time observation, communication and context won’t matter.
A human can’t consume and remember all the data and information AI can. So AI will always have value.
Every single one of us has more variables in our body than can be quantified , let alone identified and defined.
Once we can identify them all or ar least enough, AI will be able to personalize responses for specific issues. But that won’t happen in the next 5 or 10 years.
It’s a problem similar to dealing with CTE. You can’t figure out what actually happened until the patient is dead.
Tell me where I’m wrong
I give it 5-10 years at the most before AI completely takes over what most doctors do.
Most physicians, and even surgeons, will be toast.
The medical profession has no idea what is about to hit it.
Only a few good doctors, especially with excellent communication skills, will remain intact
