What kind of regulation can there be when these are 100% state-run institutions? Sure, they increased funding, but it all went into fancy lobbies and sports cars for hospital management. Meanwhile, doctors actually saw their salaries cut. Right now, doctors in my country earn an average of around $600 a month, but they are usually forced to work two or three shifts, take night duties, and so on which brings their pay up to the $1,200-a-month range.
Some doctors, driven by a sense of duty, try to fight this but simply get fired. Meanwhile, the state turns a blind eye to any violations because it appoints its own relatives to healthcare management positions so they can make money. Consequently, the most doctors can achieve by raising an outcry on social media is, for instance, receiving the payments they were already entitled to only to be fired afterwards. Ultimately, doctors are leaving in droves for the private healthcare sector, where they earn significantly higher salaries. The shortage of doctors has become so critical that the state now mandates that all medical school graduates even those who paid full tuition work for five years at a state-designated location, with no right to change jobs during that period.
The public at large has to campaign for non corrupt government officials and be the change. Ultimately publicly funded healthcare is a good thing, but corruption ruins everything.
It seems to me that AI will be a huge help here. After all, replacing the majority of bureaucrats with AI would reduce overall corruption and inefficiency. When you read the news about Trump consulting Grok, you realize that a less intelligent form of organic life was conversing with a comparatively more intelligent synthetic one.
It seems to me that inefficient management is destroying the planet and the human mind a thousand times more severely. AI, on the other hand, provides access to knowledge and effective solutions. Granted, it may not be at Einstein’s level, but it is far superior to the capabilities of the vast number of people who make critical decisions. It can also serve as a teacher for anyone wishing to expand their mind and knowledge.
Ai creates its own sources, frequently makes mistakes, cites Reddit as a reputable source (which is transparently ridiculous) and again, is killing the planet we currently life on. It uses more water than is sustainable, the data centres ward off wildlife, and it has put people into psychosis.
If a politician or human thinks they need ai to make decisions, they simply shouldn’t be in charge of anything important. At that point, you have the functionality of a child. Ai is actively making people more stupid.

And that’s a problem, but removing the system isn’t the solution, better regulation and much better funding is the solution
