I used to think that the benefit of using AI in medicine, specifically radiology, was plausible.. There is SO much data in a CT scan or MRI that human eyes just can't see, you lose soo much granularity converting a 3D scan to a 2D image on a screen so some bloodshot doctor can look at it...
AI should, in theory, be able to read a scan and find pinprick tumors or irregularities and at least tell the doctors where to look...
But now, watching LLM's do their thing, I'm now convinced that there isn't an AI around that is worth it's weight in horse-shit.
Luckily it isn't LLMs doing those tasks
