@Techmeme Not sure about this claim because it sounds like the AI tool could search for the answers but the humans could not. From the paper: "possible that some off-the-shelf models were trained on [part of the test set but] ... we asked the [doctors] in our study to refrain from using search engines." The Wired article has good quotes at the end saying a real clinical trial would be a better evaluation, but this evaluation doesn't justify strong conclusions.
