> or hallucinating medical advice that makes them sick

If your LLM hallucinates your diagnosis at a rate of 20%, and your doctor misdiagnoses you at a rate of 25% (I don't recall the real numbers, but they are on the order of this), who is the real danger, here?

Preventable medical errors, including misdiagnosis, murders nearly a quarter million Americans per year, and these "safety" enthusiasts are out here concern-trolling about the double bad evil LLMs possibly giving you bad medical advice? Really?

But a doctor is distributed and an AI is monolithic.

Deeper pockets and the like.
