@seachanger and where did the actual research for things like detecting cancer with AI go? That was making progress, not hearing much about it now because these guys are too busy eliminating artists.

@kristinHenry @seachanger this is what gets me with all the "capitalism is the only reason we have technological progress" - It isn't! It doesn't! We have an inner drive to explore, to create, to solve problems (may this drive be curiosit , hope or laziness!), and capitalism co-opt this and turns it into silly little products the serves only a small group of people, etc etc etc... @pixie @kristinHenry @seachanger There is so much on this timeline before capitalism shows up, makes what you're saying kind of obvious. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_historic_inventions |
@kristinHenry @seachanger You can pop over on JAMA and type "Artificial Intelligence" to see the landscpe. It's also worth noting that *all* this work with sequence recognition and generation is applicable and has breakthroughs in variants optimized for DNA, RNA, and other long sequence medical applications.
It's pretty easy to find a ton of really promising looking papers for various types of experiments, discussions and proposed diagnosis tooling being published consistently.
