Eric Topol looks at a bunch of large trials (tens of thousands of patients) of AI/LLM in mammography and concludes all mammograms should be aided by these tools.

Important to note these studies extend back 6+ years in different countries & include gold-standard randomized prospective trials.
I think it's very easy to fall into the 'AI is always bad' thinking but the evidence in favor here looks strong.

@brianvastag This is the kind of use of AI that actually makes sense.

@brianvastag I see it as a scientific tool, like a spectrometer. I have also seen a (very) few artists use it as a *medium*, like someone would use a stretched canvas or some film stock.
That's not the same as some CEO using it to "create" the company's new brochure, instead of hiring someone to do it.

My wife had been involved in this side of AI for over a decade.
One axe I will consistently grind is that when talking about AI, we should be specific about what kind.
Much of the current backlash is against GenAI like LLMs, but there's a wide array of things that could be labelled as AI.
Sometimes it's as basic as linear regression, a technique that predates computers by a long shot.

@dbattistella @hewer_of_code true...as scientific tools, lots of systems labeled AI have been and are being used...neural networks research dates back decades of course...

Yup. Already in the mid 90s, I had the option to study neural networks (which I didn't end up doing).
