Digestive_Biscuit
Like Wallace and Gromit but instead of cheese it’s biscuits.
Imagine an AI with a model trained exclusively on a specific set of medical books, the same set of books all doctors have access to already. While there’s still room for error it would guide the doctor to a very familiar reference. No internet junk, social media, etc.
Exactly as you say. It’s a tool, not a replacement. Certainly not in healthcare anyway.
For the last few years we go on holiday to Wales and stay in the ‘nothing’ zone. I don’t get how people live there without going insane. Lovely to visit but I wouldn’t want to live there.
We stayed at a campsite once which promoted being off the grid, the facilities were actually the best over ever seen. To get a phone signal it was 15min drive away. Off the grid was nice but planning the next day events was a bit difficult. Kind of shows how reliant we are on technology for basic map reading. Not sure how I feel about that.
I have a work phone on O2 and it’s shockingly poor in my area. Strong 4G+ signal but so slow it’s unusable. I assume it’s over subscribed or an issue with the nearby masts.
I have Three ony personal phone. This is good where I live but move towards the town centre it grinds to slow speed despite being a strong signal.
It really does feel like there’s just too many devices and not enough capacity for them.
Separate note. I read somewhere (and I forget where) that a high number of 5G masts are being rejected planning permission by pressure put on by local residents. It’s something mad like 90% are denied. There was one planned right next to where I lived but people started putting up posters about it looking ugly. The public notices disappearee so I assume the residents won. The location was right next to a roundabout and close to a railway. I really doubt it would make a different to their view.
