For the love of god, we've had transcription software for decades that will take your spoken words and transcribe them without trying to add in other stuff. Yes, sometimes they get the words wrong, but at least they're not hallucinating about topics they are not designed to understand or opine about.

“Transcripts created by 12 of the 20 programs contained incorrect information like capturing a different drug than was prescribed by the doctor.”
12 of 20 is a 60% failure rate.
Seventeen of the 20 systems missed key details about patients’ mental health issues. “
17 of 20 is a 85% failure rate.
THESE SYSTEMS ARE NOWHERE CLOSE TO ACCURATE AND SHOULD NOT BE USED FOR HEALTH MATTERS OR ANYTHING ELSE THAT IS IMPORTANT.

*Right underneath* the massive headline from the Auditor General of Ontario warning of AI ‘hallucinations' in medical AI transcripts used by Ontario doctors, there is another article with the headline
“Artificial Intelligence shows promise in emergency room diagnosis”
NO! There is not promise. There are CLEAR DANGERS being pointed out by responsible adults.
"“Inaccuracies in medical notes generated by AI scribe systems could potentially result in inadequate or harmful treatment plans that may potentially impact patient health outcomes,” the auditor’s report said.”

"There are several reasons for the lack of vacation time in the USA. One of the big reasons is the broken #healthcare system. Health care costs are so huge, that the per hour costs of health care are very high. Companies don’t want fewer productive hours when the high health care costs are going to be the same for the year no matter if the work year is 1,600; 2,000; or 2,200 hours...&quot…

Oh so this means we don’t care about being fat, or skinny, or wide, or tall, or short, or long or black or white or blue or brown or yellow or multicolored?
Oh. Right. No... It’s just drug companies making themselves rich and us poor on our insecurities and legitimate sicknesses.
This is so toxic.

““The reason that we want to help spread the word is two-fold,” said Amy Miller.
“People are interested in coming here to work in health care. Obviously, we’re so grateful to be here. But I want the community here to know that it’s working and to continue with that momentum. And I want to let people in the States know that this is an option, that it’s a real option.”
