I was at a major radiology conference recently and the radiologists kinda seemed to agree. (The interventional radiologists are a little less nervous, for now.)

Apparently 80% of FDA-approved AI "medical devices" (which covers software, not just hardware) are for radiology.

If we had followed his advice we would be experiencing a major crisis in medicine today.
