• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

Not arguing against that, but let's say Mrs viking has a blood clot or stroke and an AI analysis of an MRI has a 200% better chance of finding it over a doctor's human eyes. Or double the chance to have a successful heart surgery by letting an AI control the arthroscopic equipment over a human. Would you be okay with that?

That said I think there are some huge risks with developing the technology but there are also some huge rewards. It's one of those very cautiously optimistic situations for me. And strongly believe there need to be some protections put in to take it down which would need to be hardware based since nothing software would be safe (kill switch)
A hypothetical that I am happily not having to entertain. They, the cabal, always present these advances as good for humanity. Rarely used that way though. I will gladly wait and see. Sounds wonderful if that is all they use "big brother" for. Skol!

Oh they will 100% use it for nefarious purposes. I cannot wait to disgust some NSA interne with my porn searches.

Lol not trying to start an argument just saying medical advances in diagnosis and treatment plans would greatly benefit from AI being able to do stuff like read MRI and blood work to quickly diagnose early stages of cancer. AI has the potential to advance modern medicine more than penicillin did.
If it speeds up an American citizen from sitting in the ER for 4 hours while the illegals are paraded through like cattle then I'm all for it.

I think you are arguing the same point different sided.

AI already reads mammograms at a blinding speed with much better accuracy - point @tiderollsonu

AI doesn't need to create MRNA Cancer shots for anyone - point @Viking
