However, I'd rather argue for an AI-decentered humanity... linkedin.com/pulse/debunking…

What would you do with ~800k de-identified newborn screening records + 100 biomarkers (nearly a decade, Lombardy 🇮🇹)? New open-access Scientific Data descriptor + dataset + code. Any idea for early detection & data curation? Paper/dataset: nature.com/articles/s41597-0…

What is the effect of pre-LLM AI on hard clinical endpoints? In 47 RCTs, CDSS in EHRs show little impact on mortality and modest benefits on morbidity. Will LLMs do better? We will see. doi.org/10.1016/j.ijmedinf.2… Thanks to IRCCS Galeazzi, @unimib and all co-authors.

What is machine mentoring? It happens when AI teaches us something just by working with us, providing recommendations, or collaborating in decision-making. It can shape our skills, sometimes in ways we don’t fully realize. /1

In this paper, we show that AI can transmit biases—but in another study (in preparation), we explore how it can also transfer useful knowledge that we wouldn't have discovered otherwise. authors.elsevier.com/c/1kg24… /2

🎥 My TEDx Talk at Teatro Dal Verme, Milan, is now on YT! A tough nut to crack, but worth it: I spoke about Hybrid Intelligence to build a more responsible partnership with AI in work and daily life. 📌 Watch here: youtube.com/watch?v=zK7KkeM-… #TEDx #AI #HybridIntelligence

Just got notified that this article ( atm.amegroups.org/article/vi…) surpassed 5,000 reads! Glad to see some of its ideas spreading, like *technovigilance*: the continuous monitoring of AI-powered medical software (SaMD) to catch performance drops and data drifts.

But similar to what? Similarity metrics are key in #ML and #AI, but do they really measure similarity as humans know it? Find out: link.springer.com/chapter/10…

You reap what you sow. If you talk about AI as a thing, even an abstract entity, and not as a set of computational techniques, that thing will be regulated, not the applications.
- Regulators should regulate applications, not technology. - Regulating basic technology will put an end to innovation. - Making technology developers liable for bad uses of products built from their technology will simply stop technology development. - It will certainly stop the distribution of open source AI platforms, which will kill the entire AI ecosystem, not just startups, but also academic research. - the strangest aspect of all this is that all of these regulations are based on completely hypothetical science fiction scenario that very, very few people in the field are plausible.
