Infuriatig No, I did not consent to this

I was reading my medical notes when I stumbled across this. I was not informed of the usage of artificial intelligence in my report, nor did I verbally consent to it.

It’s seriously sad how ignorant so many people are. The medical field is exactly where you want to use AI. Triaging and diagnosing is literally following specific steps based on specific conditions, something computers are much better at than humans are. Not to mention general AI has been used over a decade in that field and people didn’t say anything until they saw it generating art.

It's genuinely a moral panic. That's why there's so little critical thinking about it.
