I date a nurse, I think nursing might give AI an existential crisis.

Jokes aside, nursing is so incredibly innately about human to human care, this is really just more hamfistig something where it doesn’t belong.

Nurses do a lot of different jobs. AI can't add much to direct hands-on patient care. But many nurses work desk jobs doing things like chart review, case management, and patient outreach. There is huge potential to automate that work.

When you have great nurses and staff then AI will definitely come in last. Unfortunately there are so many instances of poor staffing at both hospitals as well as in care/old homes where an impartial AI might just be light years ahead.

I would think the health care system really needs something like this though to avoid disaster.

The worst thing I have read about nursing is someone online saying the lucky people were the ones who failed out of their nursing program.

It seems like we are in denial with amount of care aging boomers are going to need and I don't think it is job you can just throw money at. I just can't imagine what long term care facilities are going to look like in 10 years.
