I would say this is computer engineer created medicine. They're just doing a big brute force search to find matches.
But, I guess if every algorithm is an AI, then this counts. But then so does every other instance of algorithms being used in science, which is everything these days.
Perhaps AI is just a buzzword used to gain attention???

- __s 7y agoWe were doomed as soon as we made the mistake of trusting an AI to prove the four color theorem
- yters 7y agoCan the AI prove the AI that proved the four color theorem!?!
- ska 7y agoThere was nothing AI about the original four color proof. Are you thinking of something more recent?
- dekhn 7y agoIn the future AI will be the term people use to talk about all of CS, regardless of it being artificial, or intelligent.
- ska 7y agoI don't think that is likely. More likely we follow the pattern we've had for the last 50-60 years; things we call "AI" stop being called "AI" after we understand how they work well enough.
- anthony_doan 7y agoIt is. Health sector uses mostly statistic. We use randomized experiment and with survival analysis and longitudinal analysis. Then we're also on observation studies with casuality since the 1980s between statistician and econometrician. We're using propensity modeling now for observational studies and quasi experiment. It's where a new wave of interesting stuff is happening all the while AI is taking up this weird hype in the programming world for healthcare. Data science and ML really likes to make things black boxes while ignoring the data and not accounting for uncertainty. I'm going to flat out state, you're not doing this in healthcare. There is no way in hell this is going to work without statistic. Judea Pearl is gonna have to marry statistic with CS if he wants any real headway with causality and even then I'd take Rubin, Rosenbaum, and Angrist.
