Yeah, that's exactly what IBM claimed Watson would do -- learn biology, chemistry, and medicine on its own and then outperform human physicians. Instead, Watson Medicine was a catastrophe and revealed their AI marketeers to be hopelessly clueless. That's a mistake all AI boosters should take to heart. Don't overstate your accomplishment. To wit, claims that the protein folding problem has been entirely solved by AlphaFold is such an overstatement.
