They're probably going to do their entry via B2B. Its not like other Healthcare companies don't like to save a buck.

I am pretty sure they already had their hands at NHS data, thats about 67 million people in the UK. A bit late for that.

#35I wonder if it will be able to decipher doctors’ handwriting though

Why? Medical practice is very knowledge intensive, especially general practice. Very prone to human error, have you seen the stats on accidental deaths in hospitals? Excellent high-value use for (future) learning systems which can ingest and apply a large body of knowledge and reason in the face of a huge poorly understood graph of causal factors. No, the last people to be replaced will be those doing unpaid labour,…
I hope I never have to live in a world where I have to convince a united healthcare chat bot that I need pain medicine.
I wish to live in your beautiful country filled with loving doctors doting on you with motherly care, because I definitely would prefer asking a bot for meds.

#37All being said and done with respect to AI in medicine, Doctors and medical professionals will be the very last people to be replaced. Care (both physical and mental) will be the last bastion of humanity disrupted by AI.
Doctors could be replaced before nurses and care takers

The notion of being replaced won't hold true for most professions affected by AI. The responsibilities will shift to more higher-level.

It is technically possible today for patients in hospital to have their food delivered by robot, yet most people would have a strong aversion to that idea: the presence of other humans helps us to have the will to get better. I choose my GP based on my ability to trust and empathize with him, not because of his grades in medical school. Medicine is an intrinsically human activity. It may be augmented and improved by…
You should reassess what is important to you.
Empathy isn't going to help diagnose.

#40I've posted this story before, but AI has diagnosed a problem patient in our clinic, (and now has diagnosed a second problem patient).
Basically no one could figure out what was wrong with the patient despite 2 years of seeing GP + Specialist + strong drugs. In about 5 minutes GPT3 gave my wife 10 possible diagnosis, she looked up the ones she wasnt familiar with, found one she thought matched, and later did the confirmation test: Yes, he had it. No more medicine needed...(Surgery was needed).
The insane part to me was that I later changed the prompt to say: This is the most likely diagnosis, and it got it correct.
The update on this story, we had another patient with the same issue come in, wife knew the symptoms at this point and knocked out another diagnosis.
The GP should be diagnosis this, my wife is in a specialty that doesnt deal with this. This means multiple physicians are missing this relatively common diagnosis. I hope that medical software takes note pages and places possible diagnosis at the top of the page automatically. Given how many of my tech friends are resistant to AI, I imagine healthcare field is way worse.
