Sir Tony Blair has actually advised Britain to accept AI doctors and nurses as he said the world was 'in the foothills' of the most significant tranformation given that the Industrial Revolution.
The previous prime minister claimed AI might have an 'definitely transformative' impact on civil services by making them better, less expensive and more effective.
He said, if he was in power today, he would be thinking of 'how you reorganise the entire federal government around how you welcome and gain access to this transformation'.
The ex-Labour premier detailed how 'all the regular jobs' in Whitehall could be maximized by innovation.
Sir Tony said it was 'ridiculous' the UK hadn't yet made NHS information offered to harness development.
He also delivered a withering decision on the civil service, declaring it was a 'conspiracy for inertia' with a 'genius for soaking up the motivation for change and suffocating it'.
