INSIGHT

AI Diagnostic Accuracy

  • AI doctors, through text-based conversations, can diagnose more accurately than human general practitioners.
  • This was surprising and achieved through a simulation learning environment and careful data curation.
ANECDOTE

Real-World Data Challenges

  • Early attempts to train diagnostic AI using transcribed real-world doctor-patient conversations failed.
  • The conversations were not high-quality due to pauses, utterances, and non-verbal cues lost in transcription.
