Well, it is Doug's thread.

We're in medicines infancy. We have a way better understanding of physics, chemistry, electronics, mechanics, etc than biology.

We are delivering 2nd "booster" doses of Covid vaccines when some people (most) haven't had their first. Idiots can figure out that's dumb, but that's how medicine is practiced. We use analytics to attempt to gain a stock market advantage, but it's hardly used in medicine where it would be highly effective. Why isn't AI highly leveraged in medicine? Why should we be relying on the collective experience/inexperience of a single individual rather than all data points and massive and cheap compute power?

My grandfather went in to the hospital with a broken leg and left in a body bag due to infections mostly only found in hospitals (C Diff). Hospitals is where people go to die. Mostly they are there to comfort you as nature takes its course, and occasionally they can help.
