Why link to this page instead of something closer to the source, like [1]? I know talking about voting makes for boring reading, but people, why upvote a 2 sent

Why link to this page instead of something closer to the source, like [1]? I know talking about voting makes for boring reading, but people, why upvote a 2 sentence summary?!

- jessfyi 3y agoThe two sentence summary isn't even correct. "In the study, physicians found more inaccuracies and irrelevant information in answers provided by Google’s Med-PaLM and Med-PalM 2 than those of other doctors."
- geraneum 3y agoFrom the article: > Corrado said that while he wouldn’t want it to be a part of his own family’s “healthcare journey,” he believes Med-PaLM 2 “takes the places in healthcare where AI can be beneficial and expands them by 10-fold.” Hah?
- lofatdairy 3y agoAgreed, or even the actual paper[^1]. While the methodology seems pretty well-designed, applicability to real-world type situations notwithstanding, they seem to show that LLM's primary advantage lay in the fact that physicians aren't that good at communicating with a lay audience. I know Epic for sure is/was looking into GPT-4 integration, but probably not in trying to diagnose patients, because that's just too hairy from an accountability/insurance reimbursement standpoint. It's probably more useful in communicating with patients through an interface like MyCharts. [^1]: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2305.09617.pdf https://arxiv.org/pdf/2305.09617.pdf
