Indeed. My comment was more general in nature. Specialisations of medicine that have less direct interaction will be the first to be automated. Laboratory ones are pretty much already.

Social skills. You still need them, patients still demand them. I am a physician myself and can assure you I think my profession will go the way of the dodo in the next 50 years, starting with surgeons and going on to conservative diagnosti

That's the price of scrutiny, man. Time. And these "extremely fast fields" are the same fields that need to backtrack and retract their claims. The loss of time, effort, and resources for other scientists if they use pre-prin

How do you want this value to be demonstrated? Peer-reviewing is exactly this: peers evaluating the methodology and results of your experiment or idea. If this is faulty, imagine how much more faultier is an attempt to pre-print without eve

Well, however, we can argue here that a pre-print is not of the same quality as a published work. Not that published works cannot have errors (and be retracted), but at least they have passed a first-level scrutiny of an editorial board.
