Actually, machines will never replace human judgment. It's absurd to even think machines are capable of such a thing. Machines are tools for humans to use. If your job is adding numbers or stacking boxes or something, sure. But anything beyond the basics is science fiction or delusion. A machine will never even approach an understanding of psychic continuity, for example. Now, I'm absolutely not saying that we can't engineer solutions in the medical field. You know more than I do about what diagnostic evaluation takes and how procedures are performed, so I don't pretend to understand that aspect perfectly. What I do know for sure is that a machine cannot and will never replicate human thought and decision making and cannot replace a doctor ever until the end of time. Also, you bring up a good point about salaries. Doctors are important and do great work but deserve to make no more than double or triple what the lowest paid person in their society makes. It's time to bring lawyers, doctors, accountants, developers, engineers—the professional class—back down to reality with the rest of us. |
