Interestingly, in the medical field, I have seen a few headlines, but, I was talking to a guy who works for Mayo Clinic. His job is literally trying to quantify the effects AI is having with the doctors, and talking with him I said the same thing “at least it’s good for the medical field” and he replied with “who told you that? I would actually love to speak with them.” So, I’m not sure how effective it is in the medical field either.

Very interesting, I work in IT and talked about how useless AI is and I got told off by multiple "scientists" because AI was revolutionising the way they did their research.

Granted this was on Reddit so maybe just people wanting to argue.
