Commented on Medical Advancements
AI systems that can engage in diagnostic discourse have the potential to improve accessibility, consistency, and quality of care. However, mimicking physician expertise is a significant great issue. The team behind Google DeepMind have proposed a new AI model, designed for diagnostic dialogue, called AMIE (Articulate Medical Intelligence Explorer), in a recent preprint paper, Towards Conversational Diagnostic AI (https://arxiv.org/abs/2401.05654) published on 11 January on arXiv. The model could take in information from patients and provide clear explanations of medical conditions in a wellness visit consultation.

Towards Conversational Diagnostic AI (https://arxiv.org/abs/2401.05654) published on 11 January on arXiv. This paper introduces AMIE (Articulate Medical Intelligence Explorer), a Large Language Model (LLM) based AI system optimized for diagnostic dialogue. AMIE employs a framework to assess clinically relevant aspects of performance, such as history-taking, diagnostic accuracy, managerial reasoning, communication skills, and empathy. The study contained 149 case scenarios from clinical providers in Canada, the United Kingdom, and India, 20 PCPs to compare with AMIE, and evaluations by specialized physicians and patient actors. AMIE outperformed specialized physicians on 28 of 32 axes and patient actors on 24 of 26 axes, indicating higher diagnosis accuracy and performance. This study contains limitations and should be treated with caution. Clinicians were constrained to unfamiliar synchronous text-chat, which allows for large-scale LLM-patient contacts but does not indicate standard clinical practice.

Commented on The Journal of Negro Education
The JNE, a refereed scholarly periodical, was founded at Howard University in 1932 to fill the need for a scholarly journal that would identify and define the problems that characterized the education of Black people in the United States and elsewhere, provide a forum for analysis and solutions, and serve as a vehicle for sharing statistics and research on a national basis. JNE sustains a commitment to a threefold mission: first, to stimulate the collection and facilitate the dissemination of facts about the education of Black people; second, to present discussions involving critical appraisals of the proposals and practices relating to the education of Black people; and third, to stimulate and sponsor investigations of issues incident to the education of Black people.
