This feels wild to me. I think I am pretty well privacy obsessed, but I don't see it here (fwiw, my wonderful doctor has been using these services for years; originally with overseas human labor, now with AI). First off it presupposes some level of privacy with one's GP that I would only want from a therapist. I don't want health information going beyond my doctor? What about him talking to specialists or getting another opinion in the break room?

Ship's sailed on that level of privacy anyway the second you bill an insurance carrier in the US. I am willing to take this particular risk if something I said two years ago pops up to help explain what I am currently experiencing. I understand not everyone is me and I am lucky to be in relatively good health and not have anything going on that might put employment, etc at risk so I can understand where some people may want to refuse. But the knee-jerk "FUCK NO BECAUSE PRIVACY" is almost as bad as writing a post based on a side plot in The Pitt when said side plot was 110% heightening the stress between Dr. Robby and Dr. Al Hashimi, not a goddamn double-blind study of the effectiveness of AI transcripto-bots.

And if you're going to take lessons from The Pitt about medical record transcription, why isn't it Dr. Santos repeatedly falling asleep while transcribing records?
