Seems to me pointless, biggest one being, if this was developed in a working manner, and was used... advertisers would mix between going more subtle, or more obnoxious. Just like on the web.

IE subway stations could put say a code you need to get into the subway in the middle of an advertisement. IE the real life equivelant of "you must disable your adblocker to continue".

I mean theoretically things could be anonymized for the AI, with only the charts with identifiers present, I'd imagine assuming the AI itself stays locked into the EHR system and isn't say outsourced to one of the big AI firms. With those conditions it's, roughly the same privacy as the existance of EHR in general.

As far as practical/legal/ethical, that comes down to how they market it to doctors. Personally I think it could be a useful tool for a doctor to "second opinion" himself. IE reach his own conclusion first, then hit the AI, see if it noticed something he missed. Though the obvious fear is of course going to be lazy or rushed doctors, working in a hospital that's pushing them to see the most patients possible in an hour, rewarding the doctors that walk in, hand the patient their AI diagnosis, and move into the next room. Which... well in modern America we all know this is what's going to be pushed.

The tools have amazing potential when used appropriately.... but for profit healthcare has all the wrong incentives, and they will see this as a tool to magnify them.

Valid... but also have to point out he hit big as a celebrity. When you are literally raking in millions of dollars. He was about 21 when he started his channel. and bottom line is, he got views, he got likes, and it turned into real cash. Most of our jobs etc... encourage us to grow up. His job, rewarded him for catering to his base... which of were younger than him.

I mean, I don't know of him now... he's way older and, seems significantly less immature than he was in the past, it's possible a good portion of his fanbase has also grown to be more tolerable.

I mean I don't really consider him a deplorable person... He was a dumb edgy teen 15 years ago that happened to strike a cord with the overwhelming amount of dumb edgy teens on youtube, and strike it rich. I haven't paid a ton of attention to him, but from what I saw of his linux and gadget crafting videos, it sounds like he's grown up a fair amount from his days of scream streaming.

I mean that's true, but the biggest thing to note of fetterman, he ran basically as one of those. Campaign trail fetterman sounded like he was going for a role on the squad. After he was elected he seems to be to the right of, Senima and Manchin.

to my knowledge these calculations pretty much have to be assuming a vacuum. IE there's no mention of heat loss between slaps. which would be inevitable as 23k instant slaps, would take considerable time.

Needs more references to arnald palmers dick size.

Maybe remove "new" from it.... OMG the democrats have actually decided... to attempt anything.

That's like the old joke of the CIA loyalty test.

A CIA recruit reached the final stages, at the last step he found his mother tied to a chair and gagged. His prospective boss hands him a gun and says "To prove you are ready for this job and will follow any orders, You'll need to kill your mother, I'll be outside.

10 seconds after leaving the recruiter hears the bang of a gun... followed by other bangs, clangs of metal.

Prospective recruit walks out the door.. "The god damn gun you gave me had blanks in it, so I had to beat her to death with the chair"

Oh sure, but they have hundreds of ways to do that. They usually give a bit of time to assume everyone's forgotten something before they go full on hypocritical and claiming the opposite

Now watch 1 year later they pass a law to require clergy to report to parents if they believe a child is potentially gay or trans.
