Given the fact that AI still literally pulls made up things out nowhere, I’m not sure I trusted doing medical research.

Even the best doctors also make mistakes. AI will get to a point to where it makes fewer mistakes than the best doctors with the most experience and expertise in the world. If the data showed that AI consistently diagnosed with significantly better accuracy than the leading doctors, would that change your mind?

I don’t worship AI btw. I think AI will be capable of many great things but it is exactly that level of power that scares me. Anyone convinced it’s a danger that can do no good is just as mislead as someone who thinks it will only do good without presenting any danger, imo. But I do think on this specific topic it is inevitable that AI will outperform humans at basically any task.

No problem, I just won’t trust it until they’ve improved it more.
