The real communication skill for a physician is to be able flex the style, information content, and level of detail to the patient with whom they are meeting. The patient in this room is an engineer, the patient in the next room is elderly and has mild cognitive impairment, etc. As impressive as ChatGPT is its domain, I don’t see it “reading the room” in this way anytime soon. And as a human who enjoys interacting face to face with other humans from time to time, I hope we keep it that way.
