Nature and Johns Hopkins bioethics post criticised over 'AI doctor' language

Original: RE: https:// mastodon.world/@bermaninstitut e/117490867842398359 why are Nature mag and John Hopkins Bioethics @ bermani

The Johns Hopkins Berman Institute of Bioethics and the journal Nature are being criticised after referring to large language models as "doctors" in a recent post. Commenters are pushing back hard, arguing that calling AI systems doctors is misleading and an insult to medical professionals, with hashtags like #aislop and #mediocracy circulating in the replies.

Why now: People are angry that respected medical and bioethics institutions would describe AI language models as doctors.
