Researchers design computer model to make end-of-life medical decisions

These kind of computer Intelligences have been discussed on this forum before but this development strikes at the heart of computer deciding who lives and who dies.
What madness. Let the A.I. decide!

A computer program may predict how patients who are incapacitated wish to be treated more accurately than their loved ones.
People may sign an advance directive that specifies the type of medical care they would like if they lose the ability to make decisions.
When people don't state their preferences ahead of time, though, relatives are often asked to decide on the patient's behalf.
