That's great if you're in a position to be able to do it. When I had a major medical issue resulting in a five figure bill I had to pay out of pocket, I was busy with a long recovery and simply wasn't capable, mentally, physically or emotionally, of figuring out what of hoops to jump through and then jumping through them. It was an impossibility.

Every one of us needs a loved one who is trustworthy enough, available, and willing to step in as an emergency contact, POA or proxy, in case you are incapacitated in some way. There is a growing and aging population simply fending for themselves. Is that what A.I. is supposed to “solve”?
