As AI enters the operating room, reports arise of botched surgeries

This article is pretty frustrating to read because it conflates many different kinds of so-called AI.

The AI plan involving LLMs and generative AI is conflated with a bunch of medical devices that are using stuff that has absolutely nothing to do with the new AI wave.

Wake up babe, new Therac-25 just dropped.

Yea, so what is the base rate of botched surgeries?

So if the base rate is 1 out of 100 botched, and with whatever this AI stuff they are using is 3 out of 100, eh, that doesn't look good.

But if base rate is 1 out of 100 botched and 1 out of 100 with AI is botched this is a tempest in a teapot just trying to use AI outrage to get you mad without thinking.

oof, I expected the article to NOT be about a medical operating room.

No, really? I am SHOCKED.
