We had AI systems that outperformed doctors in limited domains as early as in 1972 [1].
We've of course had massive improvements in machine learning in the 43 years since then. I think the practice of human doctors could be massively improved by having them stop spending time on things that machines are much better at. Hopefully things like IBMs Watson can make a difference in this regard.
