Months, not years.

Here's the thing - all of these capabilities already exist. It's just about plugging in the correct variants of technology together. If something like this language model is the user interface of an interaction, something like Wolfram Alpha or a medical database becomes the memory of the system.

Literally plugging in knowledge.

What we SHOULD have access to is the ability for me at home to plug in my blood results and ask the AI "What are some ailments or conditions I am likely to suffer from in the next 15 years. How likely will it be and how can I reduce the likely hood?"

The reason we won't have access to this is 1) It isn't profitable for large corporations who WILL have access to this with YOUR information 2) Insurance. It will raise ethical issues with insurance and preexisting conditions and on that platform, they will deny the public access to these capabilities. Which is of course ass backwards.

There's always a new developer that can create a new app based on that. I'm sure someone will create something similar soon.

I've learnt a few bits of programming but could never find the plug or socket to connect it all.

I think it's more about people don't have a place to create a room dedicated to medical procedures?

I think I'll just quote:

"we overestimate the impact of technology in the short-term and underestimate the effect in the long run"

Yeah, perhaps, but eventually you'll be at cusp of that massive progression (in relative terms) where it isn't overstated or overestimated.

It might still be years away to reach the level of impact which OP described, but eventually it'll only be months away.
