And it's like every other field.
Like you talk about debugging code.
In order to become a new doctor, you go through all this training because you need to make mistakes and you need to have someone above you who knows what's going on so those mistakes won't hurt patients.
And that's just how education works.
And this threatens that.
I also say there's something, there's something deeply ingrained in human society that middle-aged people complain about young people.
So I think whenever we talk about de-skilling, we have to keep that in mind.
Oh, yeah.
I think there, in certain situations, in certain places, I bet there's social pressure to say that you're not using AI, that there's some ego on the line.
I don't see that.
But again, I'm an AI researcher, so I don't think anyone would say that to me.
Yeah, and I think it's less about, so it is about memorizing.
It's more at this point, right, with where AI is now, it's more having sort of that knowledge and we'll call it wisdom to know when the system might be suggesting something wrong, which is something that right now, and this may change, we get by seeing a lot of cases and reflecting on them.
So right now, you're going to get the best performance if you have an experienced human trained in the old-fashioned way with an AI system.
But I think your guy's point is at some point that might not matter.
The AI systems might just outperform all of us.
And then, yeah, I guess it's like just use the graphing calculator.
But we're not there yet.
I mean, that's such a loaded question.
So the first thing that I'm going to say before I answer that is patient privacy is very important.
