> Theoretically something like BioMedLM and/or a vector search over clinical research and/or GPT-4 with cited sources etc. could be useful in some diagnostic circumstances to at least give doctors ideas, right?
Anything is possible, but consider this doctor's review of ChatGPT's diagonistic output:
> ChatGPT works fairly well as a diagnostic assistant — but only if you feed it perfect information, and the actual patient has a classic presentation, which is rarely the case. (And you don’t mind a 50% success rate that often misses life-threatening conditions.)
For any new technology to be useful, it needs to do more than just work; it must be significantly more productive than the alternative.
