      LLMs can’t design experiments or think of consequences or quality of life.

      They also don’t “learn” from asking questions or from a 1-time input. They need to see hundreds or thousands of people die from something to recognize the pattern of something new.

        Yeah but they can give the common answers of bed rest and hydration that is a drs go too for every thing.

        I imagine a future where LLM take over the menial up duties of you have a cold, you have high blood pressure etc.

        So actual Drs spend more time doing less menial tasks.

        But since as a society we develop automation and fire everyone around it i cant see it really happening

          In a society that valued preventative healthcare, people would get deep scans regularly when healthy, and an AI would take up the menial work of sifting through the large amount of extra data to detect issues early. Theoretically an AI would give the same amount of attention to the first scan of the day as the last scan of a 12 hour day.
