You could absolutely randomize care between a doctor and an AI under an IRB. I’d be stunned if there aren’t a dozen studies doing something like this already. You have to justify it, but most places have sections in the document where you r

Human use is already widespread. You might as well complain in 2015 about the use of Wikipedia among emergency room doctors. That ship has sailed.

The issue is that those hypothetical scenarios do not have to look like how patients actually interact with the tool. Real life use is full of ill posed questions open ended statements inaccurate assessment of symptoms, and conclusory remar

I’ve never heard of in my entire life a doctor failing to recognize a medical emergency. /s One of the things that people need to come to grips with is that like Wikipedia people will use ChatGPT because it is there. And the alternativ

What do you expect that it’s gonna announce itself in a modal dialogue when you run the software? This isn’t like AI image generation where you’re going to convince yourself that you can tell the difference based on how you think it looks.

What is this nonsense? You said that none of this was in production and then when people pointed out that it was obviously in production, you shifted the goal post to some other measure that you just imagined in your head.

Did google not rely on Gemini to do their ISA changeover? https://arxiv.org/abs/2510.14928 Was Gemini worse than no tool at all there?

No one is smuggling this in. The debate is over. It's transformative. We're in the midst of transformation.

The problem is, we have no real understanding of what people will or will not do with this technology. Will humans only be interested in “real“ activity? We have no idea, and most people are just guessing in a way that flatters some underst

I don’t know that this has to be the way. One thing that is really going to confound this very common idea that taste and quality and personal characteristics will win the day, is that you can use AI to represent all of these to other peopl

If we’re restricting ourselves to the United States, then we have to admit that we have been incinerating public education for decades. American schools have had to do more with less and eventually less with less, for as long as most of us

I think we need to invent that distinction, which is notable since the article has MANY opportunities to say it clearly. Instead we are given a picture where the improvement of the agent and the software (here docs are included) is a LOOP,

Why would it matter whether or not the robot looks something up if it makes a novel discovery? Why would it matter that the discovery wasn't just novel but felt like an unconventional one to me, someone who is probably a total outsider
