med student here: Reducing immunosuppressant not something to be taken lightly for kidney transplant patients. I was shocked when I read that sentence.
this is pubmed. Most papers that are funded by NIH research are available on pubmed if the main publisher gives access to the full text (after some set embargo period...usually around a year).
Med student here: oftentimes the attendings who are googling are usually doing it because the patient's symptoms don't fit with the most common illness "scripts" we develop in our mind and have ready for the 90% of patients who walk in the door. The google is a quick sanity check to see if these symptoms are within the range of "normal" for the most likely differential diagnoses (i.e. list of most likely diagnoses based on the patient's presentation).
That or those symptoms are exceptionally vague or uncommon enough that they warrant a quick refresher on google for leads on additional questions we should ask of patients (the most common offender here is rashes/skin lesions imo since they can literally be a manifestation of super simple "oh you just changed your shampoo" to "you have a rare autoimmune condition"...asking a comprehensive history from patients can help determine what tests to order).
That’s still way better than being told to take two Panadol and come back in the morning if your symptoms don’t improve. I mean, 99% of the time it’s a seasonal virus and that’s all you could/should do, but 0.1% of the time it’s meningitis and if you don’t go to the ICU then you die.
I'm honestly surprised it managed to output hex and still be sensible. what part of the training corpus even has long form hex values that isn't just machine code?
1) Look at simpleqa_eval.py. See that it loads "az://openaipublic/simple-evals/simple_qa_test_set.csv" Hmm, some weird vendored protocol.
2) I don't feel like digging through bf.BlobFile() to figure out how it downloads files and I certainly don't want to generate an API key. Cross fingers and do a Bing web search for "az://openaipublic"
Yes. Doctors in the US have to get a certain amount of Continuing Medical Education (CME) credits (usually done by attending conferences and lectures).
I'm not sure about it being a legal requirement in all states (may be) but is generally done by the boards that oversee one's specialties (with some very vague and inconsequential requirements by the state licensing boards).
Unfortunately it seems mostly to be a money grab in many specialties, with passing rates in the high 90s for recertification exams, fees of over a thousand dollars, and often with multiple retries if one fails (as long as you pay the fee for each attempt).
Med student here. My guess is the following:
So with CF your pancreas can’t secrete many of the enzymes that are necessary to actually digest food. You can take medications to help with that digestion, but regardless, you aren’t actually getting all the calories in your food with CF because it isn’t making its way into your body (notably patients with CF have steatorrhea which is fat in their stool because they can’t absorb a lot of fat from their foods like a non-CF patient). The med helps the pancreas recover some of its ability to secrete digestive enzymes and so patients can now eat and get more from their food. The issue is that there needs to be a recalibration in terms of how much patients are eating. Previously a 2000 calorie diet may not have gotten them so far because they didn’t absorb much of it, but now they’re absorbing a lot more of it. Plus increased work of breathing with CF expends more calories compared to a non-CF patient (and patients on this drug).
I agree file upload would be great. I almost added before launch, but figured it would take a while to do properly. I'll try and monetize it a bit this week as the bills are getting high quickly, this can probably be a paid feature.
I’m more trying to see what the utility of stable diffusion (or just the text to image problem) in the long term. Right now people can play around with making weird art pieces and maybe it will be integrated into design tools...but then what?
Eg with other AI problems out there I can see a potential application to medicine, self driving cars etc, but I just don’t see what the bigger goal of this is going to be.
Magazine illustrator, concept artist, stock photography, video game art asset creation, logo generation, interior design, fashion design, costume design, political cartoonist, caricature artist, website layout templates, font design, pixel art, book covers, children’s toy plush design, new car concept prototype…?
That's just existing industries. All the new crazy stuff it'll unlock... Custom operating system interfaces for everything based on the data they're working with, truly-open infinite video games where you can run or zoom any direction and have it write itself, bespoke lcd wallpaper customized on the fly to the person walking by, bespoke industrial design creating 3d objects (first digital, then printed) for exactly the context they're needed for merely materials cost...
