That's really interesting. I work in the emergency room, and pretty much our entire approach up patient care is algorithm-driven.
As soon as the patient checks in, their demographics (age, sex, etc) and vitals are fed into a mysterious program, which suggests an acuity level, and basically drives the whole course of treatment. The patient is required to be tested for a variety of disease processes based on the AI-generated differential diagnoses.
Honestly, I thought/still think medicine is headed toward this, which is why I decided to go into research.
