US Congress proposed bill to allow AI to prescribe drugs and medical treatment

The fact that this has even been proposed is horrifying on so many fucking levels. Technically it has to be approved by the state invovled and the FDA, but opening this door even a crack is so absurdly out of touch with reality.
a well trained ai can excel at very specific tasks.
prescribing drugs isnt it.
You would be correct. You could use it as a tool to say, help look at the patient history and help find past/present drug prescriptions and how they’ve been charted for the patient, saving a doctor or pharmacist time but ultimately that still needs to be a decision made by an actual doctor and or pharmacist.
