I'd modify the prediction to say that AI will automate a lot of the pathologist's work. The problem is that AI has no "common sense" — it just matches patterns in ways we can't really audit or explain, and every once in a while the match it chooses is absolutely bizarre. So while AI can uncover new patterns for a pathologist look at, in the end we'll still need the pathologist to decide which are meaningful and which are nonsense.

I agree with your analysis of AI , However address my question " 'Do I have cancer " ? I am on active surveillance and "MENTALLY " am working on a Gleason 3 +4 = 7 result .
Also : " What Gleason Score would you pick & what would be your next steps be .
My recent Bone & CT Scans are clear . Additionally my year-over-year MRI indicated NO CHANGE in the size or shape of the leison .
Thanks.
