It really isn’t. How many surgeries do you think LLMs perform? How many of those medical errors would’ve been resolved by a chatbot? It’s easy to quote a big scary number and pretend like it has some vague relevance when you don’t actually understand the problem space.

Ok, so how many deaths from medicals errors have been caused by and prevented through the use of LLMs (since you say it isn't hard). Can you enlighten us and not leave us guessing?

I understand many deaths due to medical errors are caused by patients misunderstanding the advice they are given. You are saying you know exactly the net value of LLMs in this problem space?

I'm thoroughly disinterested in doing your homework for you. If you don't know how to answer that question, you shouldn't be opining in that space about things you clearly don't know anything about. It's that simple.

You made the argument, you back it up. This is middle school shit. If you're not capable of understanding the subject matter, the best thing to do would be to stop asserting strident opinions about it as if you do, not be a smarmy jerk because someone called you on it.

Understand based on what, specifically? Many is a weasel word that people use to pretend that something happens frequently. What, specifically, do you mean by "medical error" in the first place? Do you know?
