Most doctors are just people who had a strong ability to pass tests and finish medical school.

Most of the ones I've worked with aren't passionate about their specialty or their patients, and their neglect and mistakes show it.

This is a tautology. “Most doctors are just (doing lots of work there) people who had the ability to meet the prerequisites for…becoming a doctor.”

Are doctors fallible? Of course. Is there room for improvement with regard to LLM’s? Hopefully. Does that mean there’s reason to spread general distrust in doctors? Fuck no. Until now they were the only chance you had at getting health care.
