Health Care - Age of GPT

Two posts' key perspectives

Alexa to Doctor Evolution

  • The year is 2070. You walk into an urgent care clinic feeling unwell, and an Alexa device asks you to describe your symptoms. 
  • The computer takes down your information, retrieves details from your past electronic health records, and suggests diagnostic tests for a human technician to perform. 
  • After getting the test results, the software program prescribes a medication to treat your condition.

Key Lines

  • “Doctors will not be replaced by AI, but they may not directly profit from it either,”
  • “You can’t outperform a physician based on reams and reams of data if you don’t have lots and lots of patients on which to train the computer,”
  • "in a few decades, patients will be comfortable interacting with computers and even trust them as their main source of medical guidance"

BioGPT (Link)

Here is a summary of what you need to know about #biogpt.

  • It is trained on domain-specific data taken from PubMed, a database of biomedical articles
  • It is trained on 15 million pieces of content
  • The data used is updated before 2021
  • It is trained for relation-extraction, content generation, question-answering and document classification
  • It is a form of #evolved ai that outperforms other generally-trained GPT-2 models such as Flan-PaLM.

It may be sooner than earlier - a software program prescribes a medication to treat your condition.

  • Technology will continue to change the world – we should all make sure that it changes it for the better
  • We all should strive to gain the knowledge we need to contribute to an intelligent debate about the world we want to live in
  • To a large part, this means gaining knowledge, and wisdom, on the question of which technologies we want.






Keep Thinking!!!
