The most alarming part about this story is that DeepMind's involvement is largely unneeded and their "accomplishments" are superficial to say the least: > DeepMind Health went on to work with Moorfields Eye Hospital, with machine-learning algorithms scouring images of eyes for signs of conditions such as macular degeneration Sorry, but "scouring images of eyes for signs of conditions" on a scale of single hospital is a task for two CS graduates, easily accomplished with freely available machine learning tools. The hospital in question could have done that themselves at minuscule cost. Are UK hospitals legally prohibited from hiring non-medical staff or something? Instead they are partnering (conspiring) with international companies to... do what again? Write Android apps and feed images to neural networks? In exchange for their entire medical data?? Is UK becoming another India or something?
