"When Australian artificial intelligence expert Dr Kobi Leins declined a medical specialist’s request to use AI transcription software during her child’s upcoming appointment, the practice told her the practitioner required the technology be used and Leins was "welcome to seek an alternative" provider."

We are giving our lives and health over to a piece of super dangerous AI crap. All for supposed efficiency and cost savings and to make the tech bros richer.
I'm a programmer of over 40 years who studied in college. What people are calling "AI" is nowhere close to actual artificial intelligence. It's just "deep deductive reasoning."
When I'm coding, "AI" can sometimes predict with remarkable accuracy what I'm trying to do and predict entire blocks of code. But that guess is based on what I just finished doing, and is often 100% wrong.
I'd NEVER trust an "AI" to prescribe for my child. It's just a tool with no common sense.
@MugsysRapSheet @gerrymcgovern an LLM might be deep, but it is very much not doing deductive reasoning
@MugsysRapSheet @gerrymcgovern whatever llms do (statistical inference is the most common simplification) is neither deductive, nor reasoning
@tanfonto @gerrymcgovern No one said it was the computer doing the "reasoning".
It's the programmer of the "AI" that wrote code to spot trends.
