Do you think general physicians or medical doctors might be redundant when AGI is fully developed?

AGI will add to the capacity of clinicians and contribute to patient care and enhance decision making capacity. There are ample spaces for clinicians to make clinical decision and improve care including the human touch and counselling. 

I think it a fully developed AGI implementation into healthcare practice will be a new tool assisting medical professionals carry out their work. There will be no replacement of human sentience when it comes to responsibility and accountability towards patients, and decision-making in healthcare. Technology will help medical assessments and will likely converge into new guidelines, but ultimately clinicians have to be in charge and accountable for patients, so that responsible use is guaranteed, and healthcare service is provided regardless of the specific technical capabilities of a clinic and how AGI is trained.
One important aspect to note is that, if we assume we have such a system in place, where AGI takes over completely the medical expertise, then we must acknowledge that no further advancements will be possible, as new training data for AI will be redundant as it will be AI-generated. Thinking at large, this means that the day we decide to do this, we are completely satisfied with the current state of medical knowledge and understanding. It is in the interest of all to instead complement the range of tools available to clinicians with AI-powered systems and data to improve efficiency and accuracy of diagnostics and therapies.

In my opinion, advancement in the technology is good to predict the symptoms of some diseases. But the final treatment should be decided by the real doctors and practitioners. AGI and GAI are man-made tools only. We should learn from the seniors and experienced persons but not from the machine tools. Always, the real (human) brain is the ultimate solution for the real world.

 

AGI will significantly augment the diagnostic and clinical decision-making, however, it can’t replace the physician's human capabilities like empathy, clinical judgment as per patient perspective and preferences. I think physicians' role will evolve in an AGI integrated system more on oversight, ethical and clinical reasoning, and patient centred care. 

it will take a very long time until AGI has enough sensors to replace physical examination by a human MD. It will indeed help the interpretation of medical data, as many AI models currently do.

I think GAI don't replace general physicians or medical doctors instead it will increase the efficiency of the medical practitioners. Definitely AGI is added advantage for doctors and it will boost their knowledge and leveraging the time.
