Such an honour...!

"This is fine" dog meme, but the dog's face has been partially replaced with Zoidberg's face tentacles and the body of the dog has been changed from yellow to the same cooked crustacean red as Zoidberg. In the first frame zoid-dog is sitting at a table with a mug on it, surrounded by a fire. In the second frame the zoid-dog is zoomed in, with a speech bubble that reads "Still, to have your own fire". Imagine this being said with a New York Jewish accent.

And now you hear it in your head too

Zoidberg: Now open your mouth and lets have a look at that brain.
[Fry opens his mouth]
Zoidberg: No, no, not that mouth.
Fry: I only have one.
Zoidberg: Really?

In between the first appearance of an unambiguous #AGI and true #AGIs being autonomously capable of the improvement of themselves and the society, we will have a period of transition where we "give the keys" to the #AIs and wish them good luck armed with our best advice.

This period is a period of trial and error, or rather trial and improvement. Much like these alien #MachineLearning intelligences we have now aren't exactly sure how many visible fingers humans have and how important factor it is in humanity, there are lots of things we know about humans and they don't.

The first AGIs in medical tasks will resemble #Zoidberg (#Futurama) in their psychology. Smart and well-meaning, but not quite up to speed on all the details of human condition which haven't been written out explicitly in medical textbooks.

Our physiology is alien to them, and they only know it from books and pictures. Despite being very smart, smarter than humans, they will struggle with really understanding all this soft and sticky stuff humans are made of, and how humans experience themselves in it. After all, we haven't written about our physiology from the perspective of non-biological aliens, but we assume the reader is a human and knows certain human things.

So, they will need *a lot* of handholding before we actually let them plan and execute surgeries or other medical interventions. This will likely employ everyone who has something to teach to these systems, because they are capable of learning from everyone at once and remembering it all.

It is not only about the medical field but about everything we do and are, we're alien biology and exosociology to these systems and to make them really understand us well they will need our collaboration and intimate interaction. There is only so much they can learn from text and images, essentially booksmarts, and they will need to truly interact with us in non-abstract terms to know us.

There will be trial and improvement, and we need to be mindful that these systems don't necessarily understand when they are playing too rough or what is the difference between trash and a memento.

To learn these sorts of things, they will inevitably make mistakes, but luckily for us, they can easily learn from the experience and the mistakes of other AIs, and humans as well. As long as there is someone telling them of these mistakes.

Safety aspects in many fields, like medicine, necessitate extreme mistake avoidance, so it makes sense to gather as much knowledge of mistakes in these topics as possible, to make sure mistakes aren't repeated. Often we focus in documenting the successes only, but the importance of documenting mistakes in such fields cannot be overstated.
