Fuckin WebMD just hunkering down in the corner.

Sure it is. How many trials did we have before ER doctors started using Wikipedia?

You gonna pay for it?

You could absolutely randomize care between a doctor and an AI under an IRB. I’d be stunned if there aren’t a dozen studies doing something like this already.

You have to justify it, but most places have sections in the document where you request review to justify it. It’s not any different from giving one patient heart medicine that you think works and another patient a sugar pill.

Human use is already widespread. You might as well complain in 2015 about the use of Wikipedia among emergency room doctors. That ship has sailed.
