AI doesn't "hallucinate." it generates algorithmically processed, falsified data. Humanizing this major functional problem makes it seem quaint and mystical, when in reality, it can be dangerous.

I may just be simple-minded, but I appreciate it when people mean what they say, and say what they mean

Today we had a fun discussion about #artificalintelligence implications in #PharmEd and decided to ask ChatGPT if we should have it write our accreditation reports. It gave us a clear no, and then we asked it to rephrase the answer in a haiku 🤣 @spbrownlee @ahoffmanpharmd

Just because you use Scripture, even in a God-affirming way, does not mean you are using Scripture for life and love, growth and wisdom—and for the sake of God or others. —Richard Rohr

@DrJeffCain Absolutely!

As a program, ChatGPT does a great job of mimicking a mid-level essayist's writing. All of education has some various anxiety about how its function will affect the writing of essays in an educational context.

This tweet thread was brought to you in part by some thoughts triggered by @DrJeffCain. Have a great weekend everyone!

If we want AI to be a part of healthcare in a productive and safe way, large data set modeling needs to be recognized as one tool in a large set of tools; right now it's being seen as "the only tool" - and that's a problem for patient safety.

@DrJeffCain (Important to note that "valueless" has a specific context here, mostly in regards to truth/accuracy)

[Alexander Hoffman (he/him) @ahoffmanpharmd]

@DrJeffCain ChatGPT's effect of creating valueless text is essentially similar to going down Alice's rabbit hole?
