2. Will doctors become obsolete?
1. They can use technology and the internet to better self educate and remain
current.
2. They can use apps, more sophisticated EMR (electronic medical records)
systems to try to run a more efficient practice.
3. They can use web sites and other social media outlets to better communicate
with their patients.
4. They can use ‘telemedicine or telehealth’ to try to reach patients more effectively
and efficiently.
But…. Even if you are an early adopter and a techie… most
physicians will be replaced by increasingly sophisticated soft
ware and AI programs and patients will turn to digital assistants
and robotics for the majority of their care in the not too distant
future!
3. After treatment for a woman suffering from leukemia proved ineffective, a team of Japanese doctors turned to IBM’s Watson for
help which was able to successfully determine that she actually suffered from a different, rare form of leukemia than the doctors had
originally believed. Watson managed to make its diagnosis after doctors from the University of Tokyo’s Institute of Medical Science
was fed it the patient’s genetic data, which was then compared to information from 20 million oncological studies.
This analysis found a different diagnosis for the type of leukemia from which the patient suffered, and it suggested a different form of
treatment, which proved far more effective than the original methods doctors had been using up to that point.

The first iPhone was unveiled on
January 9, 2007 and released on June
29, 2007.
Apple released the first iPad in April
2010
7. Digital Assistant built into
Windows 10 from Microsoft

8. The Rise of the Virtual Assistant
It seems highly probable that the public will become increasingly comfortable and
then dependent on a digital ‘virtual assistant’
10. 1. Exponential growth in information (and information
technology)
2. Complexity theory
3. Recent breakthroughs in AI (artificial intelligence, esp.
machine learning or deep learning)
Three important advances in science
and technology worth knowing about
11. Future Shock is a book written
by the futurist Alvin Toffler in 1970.
In the book, Toffler defines the
term "future shock" as a certain
psychological state of individuals
and entire societies.
His shortest definition for the term
is a personal perception of "too
much change in too short a period
of time".
Things are changing too quickly to make sense.
12. Chaos: Making a New Science is a
debut non-fiction book by James
Gleick that initially introduced the
principles and early development of
the chaos theory to the public. It was
a finalist for the National Book
Award]and the Pulitzer Prize in 1987
the branch of mathematics that deals
with complex systems whose
behavior is highly sensitive to slight
changes in conditions, so that small
alterations can give rise to strikingly
great consequences.
13. When a society gets overwhelmed by
complexity they can evolve, adapt or go
extinct.
Many cultures (e.g. the Mayans) abandoned
science and common sense and engaged in
crazy and self-destructive behaviors (like
human sacrifice) that led to their collapse

15. - The average person is likely to generate more than one million gigabytes
of health related data in their lifetime
- Medical data is expected to double every 73 days by 2020
- Less than 50% of medical decision meet evidence based standards
- Watson can read 40 million documents in 15 seconds

16. Moore's law is the observation that the number of transistors in a
dense integrated circuit doubles approximately every two years. The observation
is named after Gordon Moore, the co-founder of Intel and Fairchild
Semiconductor, whose 1965 paper described a doubling every year in the
number of components per integrated circuit
Curve shows transistor
count doubling every 2 Years

20. Key cellular pathways in mantle cell lymphoma. The B-cell receptor complex is
constitutively activated, which through multiple downstream signaling pathways
results in cellular growth and survival. Novel therapies that inhibit critical elements
of this signaling pathway are shown in white boxes.
21. Complexity has proven to be a
fundamental feature to our world that
is not amenable to our traditional
methods of modern science.
Complexity theory emphasizes
interactions and the accompanying
feedback loops that constantly
change systems.
22. Isaac Newton invented calculus in 1666 at
the age of 23 to solve problems in
mathematical physics
We now need to use complexity theory to
solve modern problems
Calculus is the mathematical
study of change, in the same
way that geometry is the
study of shape and algebra is
the study of operations and
their application to solving
equations.
27. We are getting very close to being outsmarted by computers
Advances in artificial intelligence which appeared to have stalled in the 1980’s has
recently taken off.
28. And as the industrial revolution eliminated most of the blue collar jobs, the
machine learning revolution will eliminate most of the white collar jobs
29. Recent Breakthroughs in AI (artificial intelligence) and the
money available to facilitate the rapid development
New York Times July 17, 2016
a new approach to deep learning, a machine learning method that is highly
effective for pattern recognition challenges like vision and speech.
Modeled on a general understanding of how the human brain works, it has
helped technologists make rapid progress in a wide range of A.I. fields.

48. Will the internet and AI change medicine?
Patients and researchers will continue to amass massive quantities of health data
that only super computers will be able to make sense of in a timely manner.
Who ever controls and knows how to mine big data will have the power to control
health care in the future, which is just information technology.
Patients will be more and more comfortable accessing this data from virtual
assistants without the cost and delay involved with seeing a physician.
Doctors of the future will need to reinvent themselves to remain a relevant part of
the future health care delivery system.
49. Doctors have to anticipate and adapt to dramatic changes or the patients will
simply go right past the doctor and manage their care without them
Can you teach a doctor intellectual
flexibility?
50. The last doctor?
Will there be any role for physicians by the mid century?
Will there be a
shortage of doctors in
the future or a glut?
52. Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)
technique has many potential applications, including altering the germ line of
humans, animals, and food crops. The use of CRISPR for genome editing ]was
the AAAS choice for breakthrough of the year in 2015
53.
54. The Singularity is Near
by Ray Kurzweil
a future period during which the pace of
technological advance will be so rapid,
its impact so deep, that human life will be irreversibly transformed... The
Singularity will represent the culmination of the merger of our biological thinking
and existence with our technology, resulting in a world that is still human but
transcends our biological roots. There will be no distinction, post-Singularity,
between human and machine or between physical and virtual. Kurzweil estimates
that the Singularity will happen in the year 2045.

55. Future Doctors will
need to move up
the ‘intellectual
food chain’ or
reinvent their role
in the health care
system to remain
relevant in the
future
