Abstract: The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into healthcare has sparked considerable debate regarding its impact on the workforce, particularly concerning the roles of healthcare professionals such as doctors. This article explores the potential for AI-driven automation to replace certain medical tasks traditionally performed by physicians, as well as the broader implications for employment in the healthcare sector. While AI has demonstrated significant capabilities in areas like diagnostics, data analysis, and even surgical assistance, its role is largely seen as complementary rather than substitutive. Many experts argue that AI will enhance the efficiency and accuracy of medical practices rather than eliminate the need for human doctors. Moreover, the implementation of AI in healthcare is expected to create new roles focused on managing, interpreting, and improving AI systems, thereby shifting the nature of healthcare jobs rather than reducing their number. However, concerns about the potential for job displacement and the need for reskilling within the medical profession remain. This article concludes that while AI will inevitably alter the landscape of healthcare employment, it is unlikely to replace doctors entirely. Instead, it will transform the profession, requiring a new set of skills and a reimagining of the doctor-patient relationship.
