This is cool, but it is a completely different kind of AI from LLMs.

I think this probably fits into Doctorow’s concept of “centaurs” in that the use of the AI tool is driven by highly skilled workers who tune the tool and carefully review its output. He contrasts this with the lazy mandates to use LLMs for everything in the corporate world.

I do think this kind of medical research is the best argument for the benefits of machine learning, but it’s also not what’s driving the massive scale of the AI infrastructure build-out and not really generalizable to the idea that organizations can replace workers for every knowledge job
