LLMs are not a mythical universal machine learning model that you can feed any input and have it magically do the same thing a specialized ML model could do.

You can't feed an LLM years of time-series meteorological data, and expect it to work as a specialized weather model, you can't feed it years of medical time-series and expect it to work as a model specifically trained, and validated on this specific kind of data.

An LLM generates a stream of tokens. You feed it a giant set of CSVs, if it was not RL'd to do something useful with it, it will just try to make whatever sense of it and generate something that will most probably have no strong numerical relationship to your data, it will simulate an analysis, it won't do it.

You may have a giant context windows, but attention is sparse, the attention mechanism doesn't see your whole data at the same time, it can do some simple comparisons, like figuring out that if I say my current pressure is 210X180 I should call an ER immediately. But once I send it a time-series of my twice a day blood-pressure measurements for the last 10 years, it can't make any real sense of it.

Indeed, it would have been better for the author to ask the LLM to generate a python notebook to do some data analysis on it, and then run the notebook and share the result with the doctor.
