@BlackPantherCap Very similar to my current experience, although I had my kids later; I’m 47 with a 3 year old and 2 year old.

[Mark Boulware @BoulwareMark]

@DrDiGiorgio Well said.

[Mark Boulware @BoulwareMark]

@markcecchini Yes.

@RealPostFolder Did no one see Unbreakable?

@argosaki Fascinating

@RoKhanna I would leave too.

@Rainmaker1973 Vanilla ice cream for dessert?

@ShiningScience I would love for this to be true. However, if longevity escape velocity is ever achieved, I don’t think it will be done by 2029. I think tech people frequently underestimate the complexity of the human body.

So, can we deduct the government shutdown from our taxes?

@Budgetdog_ 47 year old interventional cardiologist here. I wouldn’t mind being replaced, but I don’t see AI powered robots taking my place in the cath lab before I am retirement age.

@DrBruggeman One day this country is going to wake up and find that there are no doctors left.

[Mark Boulware @BoulwareMark]

@ThrillaRilla369 I know I’ve done at least 95 hours before.

@amitylee13 Not sure why so many people are trying to link this to the COVID vaccine. She was probably born with an extra pathway for the electricity in her heart to travel through. She should see an electrophysiologist. Ablation has like a 95% cure rate for SVT.

[Mark Boulware @BoulwareMark]

To be clear, I don’t doubt that AI will dramatically change healthcare. It’s already being implemented in some ways. And, I’m very excited for what AI may do. I just find it wildly unrealistic when people say there will be no doctors (or a number of other jobs) in 5 years. The example I gave of performing PCI during an acute infarct would take advances in robotics that I think are unfortunately very far off.

[Mark Boulware @BoulwareMark]

@KevinDickersonX @davidpattersonx I would love for my services to no longer be needed.

[Mark Boulware @BoulwareMark]

@davidpattersonx It won’t be by 2030.

[Mark Boulware @BoulwareMark]

@davidpattersonx Let me know when an AI powered robot can come in and open an occluded coronary artery to abort a MI. That’s when I’ll start worrying about my job.

@rrenzi3 @maxlugavere Especially the chocolate chip cookie dough ones

@RepGregMurphy Like being a congressman?
