Initially I see it as a doctors tool. A doctor will still ask the questions and use AI to diagnose and recommend further treatment. Assuming the doctor is in agreement the treatment will proceed. After a fair amount of A/B testing I can see the AI doing the diagnosis and a GP merely confirming it. We will need far fewer GPs then. Eventually I see the work of a GP being done by AI and it will move into more specialized forms of medicine. The doctors will be needed to confirm, communicate and be an integral part of all surgeries and procedures. The area I don’t see being affected is nursing. I think nurses will take on a more important roll as AI becomes more important. Just my crystal ball. I could be very wrong.
