Yeah he's got a really long history of hanging out with sexual predators and rapists. He's pretty proud of it.

They fired everyone competent so they could be more efficient at rubber stamping anything drug companies send their way.

[–] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Unless it's a vaccine, or proven effective in any way...

AI providing incorrect information?! Too bad nobody could have seen this coming and warned these egotistical morons.

"Durr we don't need humans for anything bc a bunch of billionaire tech bros completely out of touch with reality who have no expertise or knowledge in anything outside of tech investment promised that AI will save us as long as we keep throwing money at it."

(They’re also not that good at tech investment, they just have a bunch of money and every once in a while a project makes even more money for them instead of crashing out)

Of course it is. It's an llm drawing from datasets based on our own tribal, unflinching rhetoric. And almost definitely guided through monetary benchmarks.

And, kudos to the real journalists out there.

Wow. A generative AI hallucinating? How absolutely shocking! -Said no one ever-

[–] RagingRobot@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

No one is asking for drug approval AI. I like the old process thanks

The article says mint chocolate chip. I'm not 100% sure, but I think it looks more like roadkill rat balls barf ice-cream to me

[–] FapFlop@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

So this is how the zombie apocalypse starts. Interesting.

Who needs studies? The AI can just make em up for us!

This is how you lower US drug prices.

[–] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

By making everyone afraid to trust anything approved by the FDA, therefore reducing demand?

[–] Albbi@lemmy.ca 11 points 3 days ago (1 children)

This is how the US increases drug profits. Prices won't come down.

[–] DarkDarkHouse@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

In the short term, agreed. Over the longer term, I think enough of this will damage trust in US drugs which I expect to erode demand, while lowering the approval bar, increasing supply. Brands (the only thing left supporting confidence at that point) may also struggle, especially if some of them decide to cash in with questionable drugs for quick profits.

Eroding demand = sick people dying without the medicine they need
