‘Embarrassingly simple’ probe finds AI in medical image diagnosis ‘worse than random’
(venturebeat.com)
Artificial intelligence (AI) is intelligence demonstrated by machines, unlike the natural intelligence displayed by humans and animals, which involves consciousness and emotionality. The distinction between the former and the latter categories is often revealed by the acronym chosen.
It seems like this is a case of "they just aren't using AI right, if they used it right it works" when it sure looks like they are using the models intended for these specific medical tasks.
Those are not the sort of model anybody in the field would use (medical CV with deep learning based analysis is a vibrant field with many breakthroughs in recent years). These are the sort of models tech bros are trying to sell to the public as general AI. There is a world of difference.
