The Difference Between Recall and Medical Reasoning in Machine Learning

Q: Does med palm and flam palms performance on this test indicate that these questions are more testing sophisticated recall or some type of medical reasoning? And is there an meaningful difference between the two? A: I'm acutely aware that AI systems don't always, you know, we can't necessarily anthropomorphize them and they don't always go about tasks seemingly the same way we do. But what of course perhaps can't be excluded from models at this scale is that some kind of similar concepts or patterns have occurred in language data that goes into the training of these modelsAt some stage. In pure machine learning terms, if that was the only way that answers were solved, it might suggest that
