The problem is not reliance on AI but that the AI is not ready yet and using general-purpose models.

There isn't simply enough doctors to go around and the average one isn't as knowledgeable as you would want. Everything suggests that when it comes to diagnosis ML systems should be better in the long run on average.

Especially with a quickly aging population there is no alternative if we want people to have healthcare on a sensible level.
