AI may be on its way to your doctor’s office, but it’s not ready to see patients

What use could health care have for someone who makes things up, can't keep a secret, doesn't really know anything, and, when speaking, simply fills in the next word based on what's come before? Lots, if that individual is the newest form of artificial intelligence, according to some of the biggest companies out there.
