Just live in a country with socialised medicine.

Fortunately I do, but if they are going to use AI for medical purposes it needs to be operated by a company that won’t start spamming me with ads for adult nappies/diapers after I’ve had my prostate out.

If AI can improve diagnostics it would be a huge win for everyone, since we have a lack of doctors and the one we have are overworked. For the diapers adds, there is always adblock.

Agreed, but I want it run by a medical company, not an ad company. While I run an ad blocker, I don’t want Google to have the data in the first place.

Fair enough. Pretty sure it wont work with EU regulations anyway - patient data, at least in Germany is rather well protected, to a point it's even hard doing research.

Don’t have the same level of privacy protection in Australia as the EU, but medical data is still relatively well protected from commercial entities.
