You put too much faith in doctors. Pretty much every woman I know has been waived off for issues that turned serious later and even as a guy I have to do above average leg work to get them to care about anything.

Doctors are still better than LLMs, by a lot.

All the recent studies I’ve read actually show the opposite - that even models that are no longer considered useful are as good or better at diagnosis than the mean human physician.

To add to that real doctors have incentives which lead to malpractice. Malpractice is not a minor issue
