Hospitals should use AI to reduce paperwork, not reduce nurses. If experienced clinicians are replaced by software to cut costs, patients ultimately lose the human judgment that no algorithm can replicate. AI should support care, not become an excuse to devalue it.
Please fucking no, please do not make all of the data that are filled into those forms hallucinations now
I dunno, usually paperwork must be done correctly. I'm not sure AI has much of a place in healthcare at all.
Paperwork is cheaper than that pesky quality healthcare stuff.
