How long until Doctors spend 10+ years studying only to sit in the chair and copy-paste diagnosis from software as some kind of legal blame game piece?

You should see how long radiologists train to push a button.

I got that joke from a radiologist.

Any doctor that can be replaced be a computer, should be.
