Healthcare has destroyed every tech 'solution' so far but there is soooo much money the tech-bros can't resist. Tech always ADDs cost without improving anything.

I believe this is called paving the cow path

“If you retrofit AI into our current models of care, you have a risk of becoming very efficient at being inefficient.”

The Big Question: Can AI save healthcare from collapse?

“The opportunity is here to use this intelligence revolution to transform healthcare completely so we can lower the burden of disease and make sure that the citizens across Europe and the world can have better health outcomes in the future,” the CEO of HealthAI told The Big Question. #TheBigQuestion

@Zygos in the instance proposed, I would need to see some small small versions working and delivering benefits. Show me at one public hospital.

To argue that your product can only work if we throw out the whole system and start again is specious.

If we throw out the whole system and rebuild it *without* AI, it would be a lot better. That's what happens when you have a chance to start over.

But during that process there would be healthcare chaos. So think harder, Homer.

Yes, leading to the idea that healthcare will have to suffer a catastrophic failure and then something better might be built on the ashes.
