Perhaps the #AI question of the movement...is explainability essential? My hope is you get to choose the AI assisted surgeon (or surgeon assisted AI at some point), with a 100% cure rate...
Suppose you have cancer and you have to choose between a black box AI surgeon that cannot explain how it works but has a 90% cure rate and a human surgeon with an 80% cure rate. Do you want the AI surgeon to be illegal?

Antibiotic resistant gonorrhea is a big deal. Will be interesting to see if point-of-care molecular diagnostics for gc can make it to market. #clinmicro
