    This sounds like a really bad idea:

    The “most charismatic” application of AI, said Ellison, would pertain to electronic health records, which would let doctors monitor best practices in far flung places. For instance, a doctor in Indian River reservation would be able to see how a doctor at Memorial Sloan Kettering would a treat a patient, he said.

    Do we really want to give a black box unfettered access to everyone’s medical records? It’s a privacy and security nightmare waiting to happen.

      As someone who works in a HIPAA oriented field in biotech: yeah. There are many excellent reasons why we are Absolutely Not Allowed to point an LLM at any PHI/PII database. But fuck the rules I guess, because that’s the era we’re entering. All gas no brakes. What could go wrong.

        Keep in mind that the people advocating for AI in all kinds of fields without good reason now are the very same people who never liked the privacy rules in the first place.

          It’s not AI. It’s a large language model.

          Sorry - pet peeve of mine. I’ll call it AI when it’s actually achieved GAI capabilities.

        IRL Cyberpunk, let’s gooo.

        Guess, some people did not get, that this is a dystopian world.

          Dystopian for the little shitters but an absolute dream world for the rich. Guess who’s driving this ship?
