Can AI replace most General Practitioner functions?

Dumped my blood test data into 4 different AI engines, along with my age, race, gender, and medications I take (Finasteride, Tirz). They all came back with very comprehensive answers, all matching each other's conclusions. I can't see how a doctor would have done any better. Humans forget things and can't juggle 130 data points, even with a genius IQ.

And that's just for now. Imagine things after getting AI installed into robotic bodies designed for specific functions.

And your robotic assistant will forcibly bend you over and give you an enema if your health needs warrant it. Good times ahead!

I don't doubt where your mind is at. It says you live in Florida, but have you perhaps visited California or NY recently?

In short, YES to OP question

My wife had a skin issue that took two doctors and two trips to figure out. Second dermatologist had the exact diagnoses AI came up with as most likely.

I've used Gemini throughout my Tirz journey, been really helpful, most recently in deciding to go to 6 day rotation rather than 7, did a great job laying out the pros and cons.

I'm about to fire my current (new) PCP, he's only interested in billable codes, ignores what I tell him, only wants to work through his checklists of what someone my age "needs." As I move into Medicare, which doesn't require you to have a PCP, I'm leaning more toward combining doc-in-the-box or telehealth as needed with Gemini for reference. The standard model of annual "Wellness Visits" with a doctor doesn't do much of anything for me, personally.
