This demonstrates the unbelievable poor quality, sheer negligence and just total lack of safety, of the people who are in charge.
We are lucky that such people do not control aviation.

Better to take the risk of investing a few hundred million wrongly than to miss out on ‛Superintelligence’ – says Mark Zuckerberg.

Absolutely, the reason the public aren't up in arms, is because the powers that be don't want them to know. By enlarge the public is completely ignorant of the fact Dr's are being replaced.Any journalists out there, prepared to make this known? @guardian@novaramedia@BylineTimes

I've spent my day reading more about this
I truly despair
I wish I had the time and energy to summarise it for you
The merry-go-round of papers, the thoughtless endorsement by Royal Colleges
It was left to others to flag concerns, but their questions were ignored...

Only minimum of 2 year experience and the power to diagnose treat a discharge from ED without any doctor input - why should anyone bother with medical school to work in ED? Even a physio can do it - @RCEMpresident - your comment? doctors seem redundant in Emergency Medicine

The truth is MPs are not interested in ensuring a safe NHS for patients; this is obvious in the way doctors are being replaced by non-doctors.
The Trade Unions appear not to be concerned either. At the end of the day, their members would be the ones to suffer

Don't you know they're being replaced by PAs? Just 2yrs training masquerading as Drs. Would be good infact if you could publish this fact, as NHS has failed to inform pts of this. Very concerned, rare, enlightened member of public. @guardian

Just catching up on workforce issues..
Doctor replacement on 🔥
Competition ratios out of control 😥
IMGs under fire 😞
PLAB still running 😳
Doctors out of jobs 💔
Colleges powerless 😱
No accountability from @NHSE_WTE@gmcuk@RCPhysicians
Did I miss anything?
What the heck?!
A PA lost his job as their role was deemed unsafe to see undifferentiated patients in primary care…
So they simply switched to be a TRAINEE ACP to work in the SAME CAPACITY AS BEFORE with no sig change in training & continuing to see undifferentiated patients?!

No problem with Drs wanting to become GPs, there is a problem with even those that make it into training to actually get jobs
@wesstreeting@DHSCgovuk@NHSE_WTE need to make sure patients have access to GPs by funding GP roles - they aren’t doing this
Can’t see a GP blame 👆🏼
The MSRA has completely ruined medical recruitment, but there’s something far larger at play here.
How is it ethical to push people into a profession through shiny new med schools when we know there is such a lack of jobs? Failure of workforce planning. medical.hee.nhs.uk/medical-traini…
the core issue is always "AGI"
- what is AGI?
- what would it look like?
- how should we define it?
- how can we agree on one definition?
so it's less about the path from today's LLMs to stronger AI,
and more about agreeing on what "AGI" means
