AI Doctors: The Future of Primary Care or a Leap Too Far?

4 min read

Tony Blair’s Institute for Global Change has proposed a controversial plan to replace traditional GP surgeries with AI-powered primary care centers. This plan, outlined in a leaked report, advocates for a “national AI-powered health analytics platform” that would group patients based on their healthcare needs rather than their location. The report envisions a future where every UK citizen has a digital health record (DHR), feeding data into the AI platform, which would power an “AI Doctor” – a chatbot with large language model (LLM) capabilities that could provide patients with personalized health advice, symptom checks, and even self-care guidance. While the report highlights the potential benefits of AI in healthcare, it seems to overlook the reality of patient preferences. Expecting patients who haven’t even embraced existing digital services to readily interact with AI doctors via chatbots appears to be a significant leap.
