Won't this sort of technology help people get regular tests more often?

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

it won't because it's an illusion of a test with unverifiable results.

Imagine this, you want to know if you have cancer. you can get results from a biopsy, blood tests, and an MRI. all results are validated by specialist review. it will take 3 months to collect and validate the results. OR, you can run all your tests above and have results in 24 hours but they aren't validated by a specialist.

so the question is, why does it take 3 months and how can we make it shorter without decreasing quality, validity, or consistency?

AI is not the answer.
