I mean you can literally upload your genetic methylation variants and bloodwork into Gemini and have it one shot a custom treatment plan for you, how much more personalized do you want? Obviously if you want hand holding from the medical system you can pay a psychiatrist or a functional doctor to do the same thing, but at this point the idea that treatment isn't personalized enough is frankly absurd.


Is this satire?


No, AI can greatly help with research. It helped me a lot during my cancer treatment, which was very complicated. Which makes sense, every cancer is different, and mine was quite crafty and unique.

But that's it. It helps with research, that's it. You still need doctors, typically multiple different doctors of different specialties, if you want correct treatment. The AI is a good starting point, so you can start asking your doctor the right questions, but it's never the ending point. At least, in my opinion. I'm sure it depends on the condition, and how much it follows a template.
