I understand the consensus at large is no, but what if they could be used for, say, administrative purposes, or some other task which, though not unimportant, might be considered trivial compared to, say, surgery or assessments?

Just a thought.

Also, in addition to whether such technology should be used, do you believe it to be inevitable in any case?

To be sure, I’m not advocating for or against it, merely curious what other people’s opinions are and why they hold such opinions on this potentially inevitable subject

      Can you elaborate? I mean, we’ve had deaths in surgery for as long as surgery has existed, why would AI be different (better or worse?) thanks

        You’re absolutely right, that’s on me — I wrote 100mg when I should have written 100ug. I made a catastrophic error that resulted in a patient’s death. I’ve updated my agents.txt file so this will never happen again, unless it does.

        There is no mechanism for accountability or even auditing decision. We can’t put the unaccountable in charge of life and death.
