AI will not replace nursing, as AI lacks compassion and empathy for patients. As the Baby Boomers retire and get sick for nursing homes and hospitals there will always be jobs for Nurses and Doctors.

There will always be jobs for nurses and doctors, but there will probably not be enough nurses and doctors for those jobs. It will keep getting worse, the shortages aren’t going to let up, and automation or shipping them to cheaper countries are literally the only viable solutions.

But can't we just use AI voices and LLMs for that? Context window isn't even proper as many won't remember far enough to past.

Yeah, you are right. Compassion and empathy is truly something, which can't be replaced in 10 years by a machine. (who knows)

Compassion or empathy requires relatedness and co-experience. That is, it requires a self. If it has a self, it's not a machine anymore.
