In what's expected to soon be commonplace, artificial intelligence is being harnessed to pick up signs of cancer more accurately than the trained human eye. This latest AI model has a near 100% success rate and serves as a clear sign of things to come.

Judging by the upvotes to downvotes ratio, I think many people have become allergic to the word “AI,” even if it’s not a large language model and genuinely beneficial and applicable in practice. I guess that’s what happens when everything is called “AI.”

I just don't trust it no matter how accurate it claims to be. Until I can ask the machine what it sees that informed its opinion, I won't believe it when it tells me whether I do or don't have cancer.
