AI & robotics briefing: 'Risk-of-death' AI save lives in hospital trial
Briefly

In a randomized trial in two Taiwan hospitals, an AI system trained on electrocardiograms reduced deaths among high-risk patients by 31% and deaths by heart problems by more than 90%. "It's very rare for any medication to [produce] a 31% reduction in mortality, and then even more rare for a non-drug - this is just monitoring people with AI," says cardiologist Eric Topol.
Almost 40% of made-up text generated by the audio-to-text AI Whisper is harmful or concerning, according to a preprint study that is not yet peer reviewed. While the OpenAI tool only fabricated sections in about 1% of transcripts, these hallucinations often alluded to violence or false personal information.
