I have asked Perplexity AI (free btw) about medicals, and gotten good answers. Though sometimes I have to refine my query to get a superior answer.

Daily Wire: Can a man become a woman?

ChatGPT: Yes, a person assigned male at birth can transition to a female identity, which may involve medical, social, and legal changes. This process is known as gender transition. It is a deeply personal and individual process, and every person’s journey is unique. For some people, gender transition may involve hormone therapy to alter their physical characteristics, such as breast development or decreased muscle mass, as well as surgeries to alter their anatomy. For others, gender transition may involve only social changes, such as changing their name and pronouns, or dressing differently.

I would trust AI before I’d trust about 80% of doctors. Feed in all the vitals - blood work etc and hands down I’d go with the computer.

Beth Israel Deaconess is one of Harvard Medical School’s most important teaching hospitals. Any research coming from it is absolutely worthy of respect.

What is being exposed here is a flaw in our educational and training and mass media system.

Professionals are taught they are exceptional and wonderful and unlikely to make errors.

That arrogance is their undoing.

X-rays, and echo monitors have improved diagnosis. AI is just another tool in the physician’s bag. I for one welcome our new robot overlords.

Chat GPT? Artificial Intelligence?

I have a bridge to sell in Brooklyn.

On a related note, Amazon's 'just walk out' checkout tech was powered by 1,000 Indian workers.

Back in the day, in the 1990s, I worked on a computer research project with a hospital to add interactive computers into the mix for doctors treating leukemic children.

One aspect was to provide videos showing how parents had to handle the treatments they were responsible for immediately after being shocked with the news of what they were about to deal with. Very hard to concentrate on instructions after hearing do this wrong and your child dies. Have a nice day. This when you’re still mentally frozen from the news, so videos were a good idea. Had a camera crew at the hospital and my audio guy slid down the wall watching a treatment.

Another aspect encouraged fathers who would be more reluctant to ask questions of other human beings. It was meant to help them deal with their feelings in the middle of the night with no one watching. An emotionless support group. Get fathers who COULD deal with their feelings talk about them in videos to the ones who weren’t dealing as well.

The third part was to answer medical questions. After an answer, almost all questions were followed up with Ask Your Doctor.

This was close in time when another part of our research was starting to work with robotic surgery. The company was just then trying to move our research into more practical, money-making work. Not a bad approach, but it was traumatic after having always lived in a pure world of ideas.

Dr. Rodman may be surprised but I am not. Too many bad experiences have conditioned me to expect less of doctors. Like surgeons, so many have become “sometimes wrong and never in doubt”. Dr. Rodman’s study supports this statement. Even when presented with a justified contrary diagnosis they reject it out-of-hand. I believe they are taught they are infallible in order to give them the confidence necessary for so many critical decisions. I also believe they have to be come numb to bad decisions to keep on making enough good ones. Medicine has become like a forced march.

I’m going through brain cancer and have used grok, x version of ai to make understandable mri scans and other medical reports. Just paste in report and it will spit it back with deeper explanations.

Stopping teaching DEI, and social justice to docs would be a start. Stop forcing them to believe that female+naughty bits = male, or that unborn babies in the womb are clumps of cells, and that mRNA injected into human cells only does one thing,(namely :make vaccines).
Teach them how to discriminate between real data vs. “massaged” data. Get rid of their ridiculous paperwork overload, and documentation.
Finally, get rid of the bad docs.
P.S. did these AI tests used general doctors vs AI in general types of cases? Or AI vs a specialist?
The whole test could be skewed...example: AI vs general doc testing with a case of obscure endocrine disorder...
Wouldn’t it be better to have AI vs endocrinologist?

Does AI treat symptoms instead of causes better than doctors do?
Or do they actually cure disease despite making less money for the industry?
