: after billions of dollars, the model still can't reliably tell how many times the letter "r" appears in the word "strawberry."
And while "hallucinations" — a conveniently anthropomorphizing word used by AI companies to denote bullshit dreamed up by their AI chatbots — aren't a huge deal when, say, a student gets caught with wrong answers in their assignment, the stakes are a lot higher when it comes to medical advice. A communications platform called MyChart sees hundreds of thousands of messages being exchanged between doctors and patients a day, and the company recently added a new AI-powered feature that automatically drafts replies to patients' questions on behalf of doctors and assistants., roughly 15,000 doctors are already making use of the feature, despite the possibility of the AI introducing potentially dangerous errors.
Worse yet, the new MyChart tool isn't required to divulge that a given response was written by an AI. That could make it nearly impossible for patients to realize that they were given medical advice by an algorithm. The tool, which relies on a version of GPT-4, the OpenAI large language model that powers ChatGPT, pulls in data from material including medical records and drug prescriptions.
