Why do you think Google's intervention will result in doctor autonomy and not rule by algorithm?
- Jgrubb 7y agoIsn't "rule by algorithm" kind of what we have now anyway?
- throwaway35784 7y agoDoctors that I know resent their lack of autonomy. They are executing algorithms, generally against their will. They know the patient will get over their cold but they want a pill. They over test to avoid litigation. They treat symptoms not causes. Not because they think that's the right course of action but rather because they'll get fired if they don't.
