“Right now we’re all adopting this thing and we don’t know what problems it causes,” Fadell pointed out. He noted also that a recent report said that doctors using ChatGPT to create patient reports had hallucinations in 90% of them. “Those could kill people,” he continued. “We are using this stuff and we don’t even know how it works.”

And I thought that this was when I linked to the study he references, but that one appears to be out of Cornell, and the one that Tech Crunch references by way of The Associated Press: Researchers say an AI-powered transcription tool used in hospitals invents things no one ever said references a UMich study that I can't find the original of.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
