The reality: A $10,000 server rack running Google AMIE in a Sydney GP clinic still cannot write a Medicare referral or stop a patient from waiting forty minutes past their booking time.

Why should I care? You shouldn't
Academic validation in a controlled trial does not put clinical AI tools on a GP's desk.
