The last time I went to a doctor, they read a list of questions from a form, entered my answers into their system, and then said they'd get back to me in a couple weeks to tell me if my insurance company would allow a follow-up. That appointment should have been a web page.
Most doctor's appointments I've had recently have followed the same pattern. A good doctor is invaluable. A burnt-out noob doctor following strict procedure is like a worse GPT that your have to meet in a building full of every conceivable virus, and that costs $500 instead of $0.05. A motivated layman with GPT4 and a prescription pad would have beaten 3 out of 4 doctors I've seen since covid.
This is just my experience in the US mind you. Maybe I've had bad luck with humans, but I haven't been impressed since all of the experienced ones retired.
