Let me make it more plain. Somebody you love is in an life threatening condition. You need advice what to do or you lose them. You have a one shot option to get advice from a human expert or a LLM. Which one you pick.

What exactly are you trying to reason about with this hypothetical? Do you only buy processors which can be sent to space?

LLM on medical forum posts was more empathic and precise than the physicians. Thats the only data we have so far. I’ll pick the LLM. The humans are too random. I’ll take my chances with “hallucination” from something that’s also read every research paper in every language. Its just like Flowers for Algernon but even better.

  Why not both. Doctors can sieve hallucinations and random BS and cross check with peers anyway, and correct the diagnosis description. This can save a lot of typical paperwork and increase healthcare availability by decreasing bureaucratic work. It's not about diagnosis but the work around it. To be clear, I just mean the autocomplete for diagnosis description entry, not the diagnosis itself.

This is a stupid hypothetical; only in an extreme emergency where your loved one only had a few seconds to live would you not have time to consult both a human expert and an LLM.

  You are evading the question because it does not suit your narrative. Countless ink has been spent on discussing the potential risks and dilemmas of automated decision support, e.g., the autopilot situation having to choose whom to save. It is not "stupid" to isolate the essence of the challenges we are facing and discuss them without hidden agendas. Incidentally such discussions also help cast much needed light on tech bro culture and morality.

    This is a trolley type question. It's a fun philosophy game about morality. But nobody ever needs to answer either question with the stated limits. In both cases it's answer C: apply breaks on the trolley and ask both an expert and AI about the issue and discuss AI's response with the expert if you need to.
