Nvidia announced a collaboration with Hippocratic AI on Monday, a healthcare company that offers generative AI nurses who work for just $9 an hour. Hippocratic promotes how it can undercut real human nurses, who can cost $90 an hour, with its cheap AI agents that offer medical advice to patients over video calls in real-time.

Two things about this don't scare me as a nurse - yet:
1) Patients hardly ever ask straightforward questions like this, or at least not all of them are straightforward. I could see this being useful for parsing medication refill requests or other simple questions. What does this look like when presented with a complex question where the I am using inferences and interpreting body language to decode what the patient says?
2) Care/Case Managers like the role presented in the example video are already extremely understaffed, and the need has grown a lot since COVID. I could see a model like this being used to augment existing care managers instead of hiring the needed amount. I don't like that, I'm not excited about it, but it's not all negative. But I know it will eventually lead to things like this:

based gizmo’s review published on Letterboxd:
Listen. There’s AI all over this in the cutaways and “we’ll be right back” network messages. For this reason I can’t enjoy the amazing performances and clever ending. It actually feels insulting when that skeleton message shows up repeatedly, like the filmmakers don’t give a shit and want to let you know that you’ll accept blatant AI in your 70s period piece. Don’t let this be the start of accepting this shit in your entertainment.
Edit: it really does suck being the only one ready to complain about this. Be more mad if movies are your passion.

Film fans can go suck each and every drummer on earths dick before they get to bitch about AI taking up all the movie-artists jerbs.

haha going to the dr is already so bureaucratic and the doctor doesn't actually understand what you are asking them about, even with all the extra context of being in the same room.

They are talking about AI powered swarm drone attacks being the future of warfare. Like just ramming a thousand drones into a fighter jet or battleship. And that's the least horrifying shit on the horizon.

How are you half a decade behind?
In what world does anyone think China or Russia are going to continue NOT to use biological and chemical weapons?
Speaking of China, apparently US troops are now stationed in Taiwan

I share your optimism that the AI implementation here could be a net positive eventually. But we're also witnessing many companies rushing to implement it in order to be the first to market and satisfy their shareholders. The early adoption expense is that the tech isn't fully ready - which if that's the case here, could cost peoples lives.
