I don't know how doctors would feel but maybe it's time to have a system to query more than one doctor for patient's ailments. Instead of waiting to run into the occasional pro that actually knows your issue and fix it with a switch.

No need for moonshot AI just an large aggregative system that let's curious doctor that are very capable in a subfield scan open issues for diagnosis.



The Human Diagnosis Project (YC S12) is something like this. You can see a sample of the cases on their Twitter:

well thanks, even though i'm on HN constantly I never saw that project..


That put that in a pitch deck and go get some funding.


Might run into severe ego issues blocking doctors from using such service, but probably not enough to make it infeasible.


It's surely one factor. Maybe going subtle and only making a system for 'complex cases' so they don't feel useless.
