Fuck AI

He did at least provide one real example of what he means by all this: "When a doctor can … spend more time with the patient, because the AI is doing the transcription and entering the records in the EMR system, entering the right billing code so that the healthcare industry is better served across the payer, the provider, and the patient, ultimately—that's an outcome that I think all of us can benefit from."

That shit can't even set a timer for my eggs correctly. Have a fuck is it supposed to do all that shit?

You never had the “social permission” to do any of this idiotic bullshit, you absolute fucking wilted parsnip.

The Internet calling it MicroSlop is probably getting to him.

From tech bloggers calling them out in adding AI to everything including Notepad, to journalists raising eyebrows to their confusion why other companies aren't shoving AI into everything, to this:

They already don't have "social permission" to do what they're doing, so what are they worried about losing?

Also, an american tech oligarch speaking to a forum in Europe about billing healthcare insurance companies is fucking hilarious.

Everyone else was probably thinking "Does he realize we're not all american?"

I do not want AI involved in my patient-doctor communication at all. If transcription software is needed, though I'm not convinced it is, then they can use transcription software, but at the end of the day I think a human being should be the one responsible and making decisions regarding what is and is not officially listed in a medical record. AI is not sufficiently advanced enough for me to trust that it will not make mistakes that could endanger lives.

If we wanted to save time with billing codes, we could just do away with them and have a system that just lets people get the healthcare they need. If a test is ordered, that test should be entered as is by the doctor and not need any additional interpretation or overhead. I don't do medical billing, but I can't imagine a reason it needs to be more complicated than that.

Specialized AI double checking radiology may have a use, but I still don't see it as a replacement as much as a second check.

MS never had social permission. They just jumped in on the racist asshole government agenda to destroy science and technology entities that worked to protect us from climate change and asshole companies like MS.

I mean, sure, that's a great use case for AI. How about you actually build a machine that can do that instead of pretending LLMs can do it?

These people really live in a different reality than the rest of us.

They never had "social permission".

I'm just spitballing here, but maybe you should find out what people want first, and then build that.

The only useful that comes to mind is abolishing it.

They never had mine.

The social permission is an implicit thing at best. It's more a lack of public knowledge about the cost to society.

Social permission?

You've never had social permission.

You just force-feed this slop to humanity.

Don't mistake people not being aware of the cost as consent.

Starting to get nervous that people aren't gonna bite, huh?

That they're still trying to figure out what to do is just further proof that AI is a solution in search of a problem.

We need to make the peons irrelevant faster, guys. They're starting to suspect things.

Wow. No direction just a general plea to “do something useful”.

I still think they’re all competing for the sake of competing. They have all the money and all the credit, what do they care?

Yeah, no, you've still got a glorified autocorrect there and blowing more electricity on it won't fix it.

So, that is impossible. Just stop already.

Social Permission is quite a new euphemism for shareholder investments.

Do something useful, kill yourself

When a doctor can … spend more time with the patient, because the AI is doing the transcription and entering the records in the EMR system, entering the right billing code so that the healthcare industry is better served across the payer, the provider, and the patient, ultimately—that's an outcome that I think all of us can benefit from.

This is a system that's already in use, doctors aren't doing that work. There's an entire industry around doing that work. If they're going to eliminate that then fucking full send. Single payer or fuck off asshole.

Summary: why aren't people throwing money at AI SLOP?

Since fucking when has the corporate class needed (or even cared about) "permission" to do anything?

Y'all have been raping the environment, eroding our privacy, flaunting regulations and fucking with our elections for basically my entire lifetime.

Just give up tbh
