I have, it's the fault of how medicine is practiced to reduce cost. It's completely avoidable, you can just not tell people their scan results if they have no symptoms and the detection is less than 95% likely to be cancer. This i

Did you read my two options? Do you agree option 2 is better than option 1? If so, then scans are better than no scan You don't need to show that it's possible to avoid false positives. That's doctors being irrational. You on

I don't think so. That's a good point but the capability has been outpacing people's ability to use it for a while and that will continue. Put another way, the ability to use AI became an important factor in overall software

Even if you believe that many are too far on one side now, you have to account for the fact that AI will get better rapidly. If you're not using it now you may end up lacking preparation when it becomes more valuable

Doctors here are cognitively captured by a system designed to limit cost (and that's mostly a good thing) But scanning frequently is overwhelmingly good for the patient. The problem is the doctors. Imagine two possibilities. 1. You sca

And yes getting frequent full body MRIs is still overwhelming the right thing for the patient.

This entire chain of reasoning takes for granted that there won't be a singularity If you're talking about "reforming society", you are really not getting it. There won't be society, there won't be earth, there

But unfortunately it does sometimes work, for example in Yugoslavia. And it would have worked in Iraq if we hadn't dismantled the entire civilian infrastructure.

Do you think this is evidence that it was designed that way, as opposed to the exact opposite? It was not designed that way, so they had to specifically do extra things to make it not that way. This is like saying that python is designed to

The incentives are that a lot of the specific claims would be bad for long term retention and would be embarrassing if made public. That doesn't imply it's fake but it's not obvious any company would be incentivized to behave

I think if you paste our conversation into ChatGPT it can explain the relevant upsampling algorithms. There are algorithms that will artificially enhance edges in a way that can look like "AI", for example everything done on pixel

You're mistaken and the original experiment does not distinguish between classic edge aware upscaling/super resolution vs more problematic replacement
