The moment to opt out of AI has already passed, says James Brusseau, a philosophy professor specialising in AI ethics at Pace University in New York. "If you want to know why a decision is made, we will need humans. If we don't care about that, then we will probably use AI," he says. "So, we will have human judges for criminal cases, and human doctors to make decisions about who should get the transplant. But, weather forecasting will be gone soon, and anesthesiology too," says Prof Brusseau.

I know some people were mourning the loss of medtwitter debates of old.

So feel everyone will get enjoyment out of this guy who thinks the easiest part of medicine for AI to take over is Anaesthetics.

We are talking pKa and all the associated (or disassociated) brain strain of making one number fit with a pH number, to refer to a ratio!

Critical for the exam, and important to understand to weigh up pharmaceuticals!
