This seems connected to the push to privatise management of health data as an opportunity for corporate profit;

"Everyone can spread the word that companies and government agencies carelessly allowing cybercriminals and hostile states to get access to private personal data is outrageous and unacceptable. Make a point of this on social media. Demand legislation for financial and legal accountability."

"In an effort to grow revenue, the company said it would support 'the digital transformation of the New Zealand healthcare sector' to take a slice of what it estimated was a $1 billion opportunity.

It said the sector was ripe for digitisation in light of Covid-19 and that it would launch the health service as a cloud-based system for health providers, which would include electronic medical records and health analytics."

"This gap will likely narrow as tools improve. But for now, the most pragmatic approach is to use AI to accelerate learning, not replace it entirely."

There are much more effective learning aids already available. Also Osmani sneaks in a huge and highly questionable assumption; that more #MOLE Training will result in improved tools. There's good reason to believe that the current tools are the best that can be produced with generative models.

In my Sept, 2024 blog piece on #MOLE Training I quoted David Chapman, a PhD in AI research. He sums up this unjustified optimism nicely in his book #BetterWithoutAI;

"Most AI researchers think AI will have overall positive effects. However, this seems to be based only on a vague faith in the value of technological progress in general. It doesn鈥檛 involve worked-out ideas about desirable futures in which AI systems are enormously more powerful than current ones."
