just let the "proto" do the work and enjoy the joke

I would say generally speaking that people who assume AI will replace somebody else's job believe that these jobs are merely mechanical and there is no high-level reasoning involved that would basically require AGI (when that comes about nobody is safe). So the model of the AI radiologist assumes the only job of a radiologist is to classify images, which is pretty vulnerable to near-future disruption.

I imagine, given the training involved, the job involves more than just looking at pictures? This is what I would like to see explained.

The analogy would be the "95% of code is written by AI" stat that gets trotted out, replacing code with image evaluation. Yes AI will write the code but someone has to tell the AI what to write which is the tricky part.

Yeah my understanding is that the balance of evidence on moderate alcohol consumption works this way as well (though with cancer and heart health reversed).

No, so long as they do so independently. However if they were to collude to suppress wages, then it becomes illegal.

In my experience, Spotify generally picks 20-40 top songs from each genre and recommends them to any listener that has showed interest in that genre.

To a listener new to the genre, this yields a pretty good hit rate and the perception that Spotify is great at recommendation, but after spending any reasonable amount of time listening to the genre, the same 20-40 recommendations get stale and Spotify is completely unable to surface relevant songs from deeper in the genre catalog.

Yes, plus it's also risky as a store of value for someone even if they are complying with local law. There are greater opportunities for fraud as well as the risk the regulatory environment can change at any time.

Interesting that GOP confidence is down as well (since 2020)

Yeah in terms of greed it's really hard to say which of these two parties I detest more.

FWIW I'm currently in my late twenties / early thirties and I also think the tech of 10-15 years ago was optimal.

Hypothesis 1: The 90s-00s really were the peak and it's not just a generational effect

Hypothesis 2: The nostalgia I currently feel is bad enough but oh god it's just going to get worse isn't it?

Yeah in my experience the need to be distracted can always find an expression even after eliminating individual outlets.

Still, there are marginal benefits to reducing the quality of the distraction by banning myself from those I most enjoy.
