So gotta do a procedures based specialty for that 50 year job securityI would keep a close eye on what AI starts handling in the non-medical field.
Most of what you are describing could also be said of someone working in a call center, and I doubt those jobs survive the end of the decade.
AI can also become pretty good at putting people in boxes (not literally - for now), this is why Facebook is a leading company in AI, so categorizing patients as more or less likely to follow a medical regimen is well within the realm of possibility. This could probably be done reasonably now with the right dataset.
People are also getting more and more tolerant of asking AI questions, even letting it drive their car.
There was a strong, human component when a trained travel agent sat down with a customer too.
People are fickle and will give up human physicians in a second if it means lower cost of reasonable quality care, especially if it becomes more available and convenient.
