Lol. I will believe it when I see it. I don't think LLMs especially will do that much good in Healthcare, and I would be particulary wary of them diagnosing patients. Aside from some very limited signal analysis for telehealth, I am very wary on the applications of "new" AI on healthcare. I believe it will be a disaster.
Unless you're a medical professional, you probably won't see it.
8f your in enterprise software, this stuff is pretty malleable. You are regularly asked to give pitches and lectures on medical projects, for sales reasons. You would be surprised - most people that work on this stuff have no idea the fist thing about medicine.
My Mom's a doctor, so I can ask her to have a bit of insight about this stuff. The challenges facing healthcare don't have that much to do with technology, at least in the US.
