Do you believe the issue is because they don't have enough technicians to diagnose or because they don't have enough x-ray machines? Or in a ER environment, how an AI would speed up things in a real way that improves patients' lives?
We just minted the term "cognitive debt" for software engineers that cannot keep up with what the AI spits out. How would that apply to ER doctors, or any other kind of doctor?
I'm not talking in particular about the X rays. It's about general lack of hospitals, equipment and doctors.
In Europe, there are some rich cities which have on average one doctor per hundred people. And there are large areas in Eastern Europe that have ten times less than that.
