By now you know that #ChatGPT will make up nonsense, presented with confidence.

Useful framework by AI and Data Policy lawyer:

@jvt In my line of work, I get asked if we can use ChatGPT to generate clinical reports for cancer patients. My answer comes in 3 parts:

1. No.
2. Absolutely not.
3. Trusting life-or-death decisions about cancer treatment to Chat-GPT is not merely irresponsible, it's something you'd make up as an illustration of the worst possible use case.

@iain_bancarz @jvt @VulpineAmethyst 3 = there will be 3 startups trying to promote this by the end of the day then?

@chloeraccoon @jvt @VulpineAmethyst They can try if they want to. But thankfully there are laws and regulations governing medical reports.

Medical regulators would have a strongly negative response to Chat-GPT in a clinical setting.

In less formal terms, anyone seriously asking to do it would be yeeted into the sun. 😀

@iain_bancarz @jvt @VulpineAmethyst *eyes the current government here...* yeah, like I'd trust that to all stay in place if someone offered money/cut down on waiting times/reducing in costs by cutting out patients...

@chloeraccoon @jvt @VulpineAmethyst I dislike the current UK government so much I moved to another continent to get away from it.

But even they are unlikely to burn clinical regulation to the ground and allow diagnosis by magic 8-ball, which is what Chat-GPT amounts to. (That said, no matter how low you set your expectations, this lot have a way of tunnelling underneath them...)
