medical appointments is a perfect use case for ai note takers. Imagine you have an elderly parent who lives hundreds of miles away. You can't always be present for their medical appointments, yet, the outcomes of those appointments are critical, and sometimes information is shared in a way that the elderly parent cannot be a trustworthy source for that info. What do you do?

Record the audio, transcribe it later. Your AI note taker will mangle some of the details in a subtle but wrong way. Or not, who knows? But if you have ever transcribed anything with whisper, it is both amazing how well it works, and how it can go completely off the rails if there is a prolonged pause or noise. It will just make up words, fill the gaps. I am assuming the transcription process for an AI note taker will not use anything fundamentally different than Whisper

You make them get the results and guidance in writing, and if they forgot to get it in writing, you have them contact the provider and get it in writing. You don't send a tape recorder.

Except they straight up drop important clinical information. My partner has to go over it with a fine toothed comb and it saves her zero time.

This is my experience with it refining meeting notes. Important context is washed out because the ai converts stuff to super generic terms instead
