I don't see it that way. I see AI deciding what cancer a person has and how it's treated. Then that's fed to your normal doctor who takes care of it. It'll be like a blood test. The test shows the doctor what's wrong so all he had to do is follow the guidelines to fix the problem. In the case of cancer, he gives the patient the drugs AI tells him he needs.

Again, this isn't fiction. It's happening already. AI is diagnosing cancer and it's helping treat cancer. AI is better at treating cancer than doctors. We still have a middleman (the chemotherapist) but I don't see why he'll be necessary in10 years.
