Episode notes

Generative AI systems are not quote, the same as looking up a set of symptoms on Google. Yet these programs have the ability to synthesize data and think much like an expert. Even the best doctor may be less adept than a machine when it comes to recognizing complex patterns without bias. Dr. Lomis: There is the real possibility that doctors in training could lean on these programs to do the hard work of generating a diagnosis rather than learn to do it themselves.

Google recently shared its RT-2 model which can translate generalized instructions into robotic control. Also on today's episode, researchers use AI to discover ancient antibiotics from Neanderthals and Denisovans; Google releases research on Med-PaLM M, a general multimodal medical model; and AI might be coming to Dungeons & Dragons.
