Okay but I don’t want AI. Any AI.
Not all AI is bad. In the healthcare sector it could improve decision-making, produce personalised treatment plans, and so forth.
Obviously, the healthcare professionals will have final say, but it's a good tool to have. AI will not replace them. Though it will streamline cumbersome processes.
I am all for AI as long as it's used in a non-dystopian manner.
Isn't that what the doctor is already supposed to be doing? Looking at our history, charts, treatment attempts and customizing? Because if not I could just WebMD and pay a doc to write a scrip.
Yes, but doctors aren't very good at it.
They should be, though.
I agree, but I'm not going to hold my breath over that happening.
