Why technology can change this work

  • AI prepares reports, plans, minutes and management options
  • autopilot gradually takes control in constrained, well-mapped environments
  • AI accelerates analysis of images, records and laboratory indicators
  • documentation and preliminary triage can be automated
  • decision-support systems compare symptoms with large datasets

What protects the occupation

  • accountability for people, priorities and conflicting interests
  • operation in bad weather, road works and unpredictable human behavior
  • a large share of value comes from human judgement, trust or personal accountability
  • the physical environment is too variable for near-term full robotics automation
  • clinical accountability and high cost of error
  • physical examination, procedures and care
