I completely get your skepticism, but I was being serious. Yes, at least one life within my organization has literally been saved with the help of an AI drug discovery tool (used by a team of geneticists). I’m not going to get into specifics because nothing from the case has been released publicly (I’m sure a case report will pop up at some point) and I don’t want to get my ass fired, but it’s not a joke that these tools can be incredibly powerful in medicine when used by human experts, including helping to save lives.
My friend does diabetes research and he was using machine learning to analyze tissue samples and the model he built is way more accurate than humans looking at the same material. There are definitely good use cases for ML in medicine.

Yes but ML is not what people mean when they say ”AI” now. They mean LLMs.
