Comment on So Far, AI Is a Money Pit That Isn't Paying Off

  I’m in cardiology - radiology is right across the hall. We’re both under ancillary services.

  None of this is implemented so none of it is paying off.

  Also nobody thinks this will take their jobs, because it looks like Theranos to us, in that it’s very hyped in tech and ridiculous to those of us in the medical field.

    Sounds like your hospital is behind the times then. Mine has already been rolling out the tech and holding seminars on how folks don’t need to worry about losing their job. And, I suppose as an EMR analyst you’re fully aware that Epic is working on a natural language interface for querying SlicerDicer so even data analysts will have to go pound sand soon (not saying that’s good btw).

      Dude, I am an Epic analyst. We’re a 10 star organization (ie cutting edge adoption of features).

      I don’t know how to tell you how wrong you are. None of this is even remotely near production.

      Helping with SlicerDicer queries is not reading a film.

      Again, even this feature is not remotely near production. It’s not even in any proof of concept environments.

        Idk what to tell ya. My hospital is already using it and it’s one of the biggest hospitals in the region.
