An AGI doctor could theoretically know every medical paper ever written. Does that mean human doctors are obsolete? I believe the answer is NO, but their role will change completely.
The High-Touch Doctor
Diagnosis will be automated. Surgery will be robotic. The human doctor becomes a "Medical Guide" and emotional anchor.
Future Skills for Doctors
- Data Interpretation: Explained AI decisions to patients.
- Empathy: The one thing AI cannot fake authentically.
- Ethics: Making the hard decisions on life and death.
