mhoyeI heard a confession from a friend the other day who's working on ML in health care who's leaving that field as soon as he can because as best as he and his team can measure, the most important thing ML analytics can bring to hospitals is the mathematical certainty they should have taken the money they spent on ML analytics and hired nurses instead.
Paul Houle@mhoye i worked with a doctor who’d gotten his MD but decided to start a startup instead of doing a residency and getting board certified; we were trying to develop foundation models for healthcare NLP before there was transformers; we disagreed about quite a few things, one of them was that I was convinced (as awful as it was) that the best market for our product would be automating recoding for docs to get more money out of insurance
