A Dubai-based doctor, working at Al Zahra Hospital, tried to check if AI could detect pneumonia like a professional doctor.
On his surprise, the AI pointed out the same spots instantly. It even found the spots he had missed earlier, which according to him helped the patient recover after treatment.
Dr. Mohammad Fawzi Katranji then took to instagram and shared this incident.
He wrote jokingly on Instagram that he may soon lose his job to AI and will try to apply at McDonald’s after that.
“Now, here comes AI, and they pick it up in a second. Now, you don’t need professional eyes to look at these X-rays. You just have artificial intelligence. They picked up pneumonia,” the doctor said.
This generated mixed responses with some people praising Ai and some calling it a threat to human job security.
