Take a break from the divisive discourse and read something balanced

We’ve all heard stories of patients using @OpenAI chatbots to identify conditions that doctors missed for years. Those stories matter.
But we hear much less about the other side: patients bringing false information into the clinic, and the time clinicians then spend correcting it.
In our new study, we tested this failure mode directly. When frontier AI models were given misleading clinical context, they changed a correct answer to a false one more than 50% of the time.
Yes, healthcare has an access problem and AI can solve it. But medicine has guardrails for a reason: false information may be as dangerous as no information.
Can LLMs keep correct medical judgment when the context is misleading?
LLMs ace medical exams. But real-world use cases rarely come with clean context the way exams do. So we investigated whether LLMs preserve correct medical judgment under misleading context.
Our findings:
> Across 11 frontier model configs, accuracy dropped from 71% to 38%.
> A 14-member clinical panel from 7 countries identified serious potential harm in 38.2% of reviewed cases.

As someone who does high res ultrasound for a living I am sick of reading about this stupid Mid journey whole body US garbage.
It is a template lesson in what you get when a tech bro takes an idea with no concept of the real world use and limitations of the science and runs it.

Good afternoon friends.
While working, I dropped by a farmers market.
Look, I found an interesting sandwich there.
I love sweet potato very much, so I bought it!
Today’s lunch
“Yakiimo (baked sweet potato) sandwich”

It's time for seeing those people I only see once a year and trying to make polite conversation that I find excruciatingly difficult
At a restaurant in France hoping they'll ask me whether the food is ok while I'm eating it because I remember "thank you it's delicious" but not in the past tense
