It's actually quite terrifying that we cannot say it's 100% satire.

ChatGPT knows when it's being asked to identify a hotdog and doesn't get paid for that business

I've talked to a real live Midwesterner that thought other countries didn't exist (as far as I could tell)

whoooosh
Key here is the phrase "similar results", meaning as inaccurate as the chatgpt ones.

Ooh, yeah when the models go full hallucination mode I reckon it's possible!

Yer a hairy lizard!

Tell me there's a difference

(Excepting the existential realization that the stupider a person is, the more easily they're used as a tool, of course, and keeping them in line and on track is often simpler than tech solutions.)

Sorry you had to endure that. 🤢

I'm guessing Ohio?

Lies. Aeroplanes go "neeyowm".

Jokes aside, as much as I hate AI slop this could actually be a freaking awesome use for pattern recognition that might actually improve healthcare.

But, I'm a US American so for us it costs a stupid amount of money to GET the X-Ray after waiting for an appointment, and then you play one-way phone tag waiting another month(s) for the analysis of the x-ray.

(Bonus points if you wait 6 months and pay $150-whatever for "I dunno looks fine to me.")

I dunno in a functioning society with a decent doctor:patient ratio (is there such a thing?) maybe this wouldn't be necessary, but over here for most things we're practically on our own anyway so the more DIY options the better.

Shout-out to urgent cares though. If you actually broke something they usually get you scanned and remedied pretty fast. I had a thoroughly good ouch-I-think-my-toe-broke (it did) experience with urgent care.

Edit: lol curious about the downvotes. Fans of US healthcare maybe idk? O.o

That or like rrrrrrrwwwwwwwwwwmmmmmm if they are passenger planes high in the sky.

An instance of Poe's law.

And in full disclosure, I had actually forgotten the name of that and had to look it up, which from an outside perspective might also look like an instance of it.

Yeah AI (not necessarily LLMs though) have been used to great effect for medical uses like that. It's a shame how most of the good work coming out of the AI/ML field gets overshadowed by LLMs

Clever girl

Nervous human noises are the most calming and reassuring noises!

Global problem probably.

Here in Eastern Europe if you have the money you go to private clinics and for the most part you will get the care you need but even in paid ones the good doctors have pretty long wait times. And you're paying ~100 eur for 1 consultation.

Name checks out.

Lol, I'm from a country with healthcare so I just go to the doctor and my X-ray is free. Parking is also redeemable because of my job!

How would that even work? Did they think the US gov was making up the existence of other countries as some sort of conspiracy?

What country? I got a lung xray the same week I was admitted into the hospital and it was all in a public and free hospital.

Poe's Law in action.

I always get that and Cunningham's mixed up. But the good news is it always looks like an intentional use of Cunningham's Law if I do.

Most people don't know that. Until they probably reach Kindergarten :)

Sadly yes...pretty much :)

The name was a reference to the lettuce thing. I've had doctors ignore crucial details. I do have some medical training, just enough to help until someone better arrives. Last time I was a hospital, me needing a cpap machine was ignored and I had to tell the, what assumed, nurse in training how to set up my IV... after they fucked it up 4 times.

Xrays cost like nothing, >$100,000 is a bit extreme

we live in a society.

HI MONGO!

That doesn't look like anything to me

Claude helped me walk me through finding & installing the 3D-Slicer software on my Linux workstation, and a crash course in how to use it to find various interesting bits of my internal anatomy, which was great fun for playing with the CT-scan data I came home with after abdominal surgery.

It was also pretty helpful at turning medicalese jargon - in the various medical test and report files I accumulated between admission in ER and discharge a few days later - into understandable English. Which was actually pretty cool and reduced my stress levels markedly (that and the opiate pump.)

Asking an AI to diagnose you from a photo is obviously idiotic. It doesn't mean they're useless though; it just means that evidently AI won't cure stupid.

Oi! Save some quotation marks for the rest of us, will ya?

In Romania at least I've never had to wait for an x-ray or the like on the public system; the health system has a lot of problems but that's not one of them.

The hospital buildings might look like they've just been demilitarised, the ward won't have AC, it'll be 50c, and you'll be sharing it with a drug addict who spends all night pacing up and down the ward smoking cigarettes - but you'll wait less time for (and they won't hesitate to call for) an X-Ray or MRI or whatever than you would in the UK on the NHS.

UK version: instead of waiting for hours in hospital with a hurty hand

The last three times myself or a family member have been to the emergency room in the US it's taken hours to be seen. And we have enormous medical bills and insurance premiums on top of that.

How about split the difference and give it a picture of a hand with a finger bent at an impossible angle and obviously broken? /s, of course

Yeah, it will take away all of our jobs.

I was going to reference this scene from Everything Everywhere All At Once, but got distracted by the fact that the studio is selling hotdog finger gloves.

… huh. That’s weird.

NO slash s needed. I just figure if it's an image that's already been on the net, the AI already has data on it.
