This is one of my hopes too, but it's going to threaten the livelihoods/existence of some of the wealthiest and most powerful people in our society. They already very tightly control the reins on who is allowed to "practice" medicine. It's going to take a fighter with very deep pockets and a serious commitment to their principles to make that happen. Alternatively if the people got mad and vocal enough about it, the democratic levers could be used, but the population is so largely apathetic and accepting of whatever we're told that I don't see that happening. For example, many people are being forced into purely artificial shortages of medicines they depend on, and there's no outcry.
What I see as much more likely, is this software will exist but will be gated to use only by a licensed physician, ostensibly for our "safety"
