Hello! I'm a computer person and sometimes I have health problems and then I'm really grateful that doctors exist.
Sometimes I wonder whether doctors will stop existing at some point.
Why would someone go through years and years of painful studying and training, to end up working in a hospital (!) doing colonoscopies all day, being on call 24/7, just to end up with the same income as some kid joining a FAANG straight out of high-school?
Perhaps I'm too tunnel visioned in this tech world, but I'm wondering about the incentives here and if they will keep existing. We do need doctors, right?
