A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

I probably don't need to point this out, but AIs do not have to follow any sort of doctor-patient confidentiality issues what with them not being doctors.
Didn’t take the Hippocratic oath either
They take the Hypocritic oath instead.
Doctors don't do so either, at least in the US
You’re correct but most pledge a modern version thereof
Whilst that's a good point, it's not my top concern by a huge margin.
I take it you're not, for example, trans. Because it sure is a top concern for them considering the administration wants to end their existence by any means necessary, so maybe it should be for you. At least I hope aiding in genocide would be a top concern of yours.
I don't see how that's got anything to do with it.
My main concern is the misdiagnosis of illness and mispescription of drugs. That will kill people as a primary effect. Malappropriation of data will have hugely negative secondary effects, yes and for everyone with any medical record.
My priority is about how immediate and irreversible the issues are (death). Not about the validity of the concern.

Why do you think an AI would be any different? It would make gathering that data easier.
