@headgsd@kjdelay1 I live in a very rural area, and you are preaching to the choir! Generally, it is just less tumultuous if people choose to quit vs being forced.
@markroseman I am a NP, I work in a PHC center. We have a clinic nurse who does outpatient treatments, and RN who does more complex procedures in office, vac, pics, ports. 3 nurses who manage chronic diseases, COPD, diabetes, one mental health nurse. We also house homecare.
@thintechgodhead In ๐จ๐ฆ maid is mostly used for end stage cancers appropriately. However, use for people with chronic pain, mental illness or other social issues it where it gets tricky and problematic. Ethically, we donโt pay for the inventions you need to get better, but we will kill you.
๐ฆA researcher invented a fake eye condition called bixonimania, uploaded two obviously fraudulent papers about it to an academic server, and watched major AI systems present it as real medicine within weeks.
The fake papers thanked Starfleet Academy, cited funding from the Professor Sideshow Bob Foundation and the University of Fellowship of the Ring, and stated mid-paper that the entire thing was made up. Google's Gemini told users it was caused by blue light. Perplexity cited its prevalence at one in 90,000 people.
ChatGPT advised users whether their symptoms matched. The fake research was then cited in a peer-reviewed journal that only retracted it after Nature contacted the publisher.
My Take
The researcher made the papers as obviously fake as possible on purpose. The AI systems didn't catch it. Neither did the human researchers who cited it in real journals, which means people are feeding AI-generated references into their work without reading what they're actually citing.
I've covered the FDA using AI for drug review, the NYC hospital CEO ready to replace radiologists, and ChatGPT Health launching this year. All of that is happening in the same environment where a condition funded by a Simpsons character and endorsed by the crew of the Enterprise was being presented as emerging medical consensus. The people making these deployment decisions seem to believe the pipeline from research to AI to patient is more supervised than it actually is. This experiment suggests it isn't supervised much at all.

@x_ark_kresyx I hate how true this is. I used to be a regular, now option of last resort. Food is gross, coffee is nasty, and everything is expensive. Even roll up the rim sucks!
@hollyanndoan@ParksCanada The history of this site and the link to residential school is very interesting. The 2nd Mrs. Motherwell was head of a residential school. Embracing the tension, 2 eyed seeing, would give some depth to the story.
