Good GOD

At least, how it’s being employed by and large now. It has value diagnostically speaking as an aid but I cannot abide replacing humans in medicine with this crap

I fucking hate AI just to be clear

It’s basically a triage protocol like a lot of nurse lines have that ends with a generated HPI. I’m not sure how they expect to make money on $40 a visit OOP, otherwise it’s just a fancy front end to a virtual visit

I messed around with it a few minutes, I mean obviously a grift so didn’t want to feed the beast too much. I did two scenarios, one where a visit should be recommended and one where it’s clearly most likely viral. Of course as I suspected a visit was recommended for both of them

Do you remember the name of the company?

Fake people from AI videos and pics look like the monster people in the show From

I feel like Arby’s incident the other day is affecting your work here

Fighting for my life in the comments “yes I know viral pharyngitis can cause white lesions and tonsillar swelling easily mistaken for strep, yes I know about mono and peritonsillar abscess, YES I AM FAMILIAR WITH THE CENTOR CRITERIA”

Then a hundred NP haters rip me to shreds. Then the kid’s mom makes an appearance and talks about how they need to make sure kid doesn’t miss any more school for medical truancy and how if we do antibiotics for 24 hours they can report on Tuesday and only miss one day

“my patient’s mom says she knows what strep is and this is a strep infection in her kid. Kid has history of multiple strep infections this year and parents are having transportation issues affecting the ability for testing. Based on exposure, symptoms, and history I am electing to treat. AITA?”
