Worth mentioning but health screening is a great use of AI.

Also worth mentioning.

Ask for fucking consent.

AI model training is off the fucking rails right now and we really need laws and lawsuits to punish assholes.

they did, they literally asked them to fill out forms.

Sorry, maybe I should clarify that to "informed consent" - if someone shoves an eighty page ToS in front of you to use the services of their private hospital you may be giving consent technically but it's not informed consent.

If "them" means me... no my GP didn't ask me to fill out a form authorising the recording.

It seemed obvious to me that GP didn't really know much about it, like how data stored, how data used, et cetera.

Are you just randomly reading comments and replying? This literal thread is about a doctor who asked a patient for consent to record their session so they could use it to train an AI.

I think this statement is far too broad.

It might be good to have AI review some imaging someone has had done to examine some particular ailment.

It's definitely not good to have a LLM review conversations with my GP and send me targeted marketing for "potential" ailments.

It is, it was a bit terse, you're right.

A potential fantastic use of AI is to scan a person's medical records against the vast medical knowledge humans have gathered over the past century or so to help doctors identify problems quicker and with more accuracy.

While the general purpose AI's we use today can't be trusted to diagnose anything (but I'd argue they can assist a competent doctor) a future specific purpose AI that's tailored to that task could revolutionize diagnosis. And with the rate AI is going (even if people like Sam Altman are stretching truths) it's not a too distant future.
