With AI writing everything for us including emails, blog posts, and code, we have to realize that jobs will be replaced. Places that are ripping us off are media, if you watch Netflix, the new movies are all using AI to create scenes and its really annoying, downgrading the quality of films. Artists are using AI to write song lyrics and in some cases music itself.
In addition to making everyone lazier, the real problem will be seen in healthcare...
Healthcare: in 2028 there will likely be a rule out AI integrated diagnostics to reduce load on family doctors. They are already training models on your "anonymized" healthcare data.
In your electronic medical record "EMR", the provider could talk to the AI and say, "patient with record number #####9999 is experiencing these symptoms over the last week, I think it might be cardiac related, what tests should i order, and give me most likely top five diagnoses." The AI will analyze the entire EMR of that patient and give you a decent and even better diagnosis than a provider could.
Why?
The provider spends hours reviewing medical history of patients, something AI can do in seconds. So you might think, wow that's better, but there's a privacy violation that will happen, let me explain.
They will train the AI models on "anonymized" patient records to understand diagnoses based on presentation and lab records. Which means, they would have to put strict measures to isolate the activity of models to only access each individual patient. However, more data will be accumulated and a new model will need to be trained. They will use AI to collect the data. But wouldn't it be even more accurate if they had the family history in more detail? They will allow multiple patients who are related or in relationships to be trained together (less anonymity) in order to provide the best diagnoses capabilities. The AI model will be in a centralized location accessible to people on the hospital's network.
Within a year, their security will be breached. The AI model will be stolen, and whoever has that model will be able to ask about any patient they want. I don't believe they will anonymize each patient with 100% effectiveness because no matter what, there are always failures in that arena. Providers sometimes include names in the records or in the pdf documents they upload from other institutions that are not compatible with their EMR system.
