    Jesus fuck. As someone who works in biotech: this is probably going to kill people.

      Like why don’t we just have ACTUAL DOCTORS and techs trained to do this actually test it. Wild concept I know.

        Doctors cost money and the money goes to doctors. LLMs cost less and the money goes to billionaire techbros.

        Because it costs money to educate the doctors, then they want money.

      Ignorance is bliss homie…

      People really don’t want to know how much AI is being shoved down the government’s and military’s throats these days.

      It ain’t even just a musk/trump thing, most of it was put in motion under Biden, but now idiots are running with it.

      Like, who the fuck really wants the space force using a closeted version of the same consumer level chatbot coding shit?

      Fucking no one who understands anything about any of this, but the people calling the shots believe the hype.

      So ignorance is bliss.

      They don’t care though, if anything it’s more money for the medical profit machine.

      He could see AI being used more immediately to address certain “low-hanging fruit,” such as checking for application completeness. “Something as trivial as that could expedite the return of feedback to the submitters based on things that need to be addressed to make the application complete,” he says. More sophisticated uses would need to be developed, tested, and proved out.

      Oh no, the dystopian horror…

        LLMs also do a lot of mistakes even when used for text analysis, and as the tech sector loves the “move fast and break things” mantra, it’ll be put into practice much earlier than it should be.

    Most PCs no longer have floppy disk readers or CD drives, where are they going to put the placebo or drugs in.
