A statistical model of language isn't the same as medical training??????????????????????????
It’s actually interesting. They found the LLMs gave the correct diagnosis high-90-something percent of the time if they had access to the notes doctors wrote about their symptoms. But when thrust into the room, cold, with patients, the LLMs couldn’t gather that symptom info themselves.
LLM gives correct answer when doctor writes it down first.... Wowoweewow very nice!
You have misunderstood what they said.
