Chapter 928: Chapter 921 AI Diagnostic System
Perhaps even the Glasses Doctor himself never imagined he would actually be the legendary Ōkuninushi from mythology.
Chen Yu did not know how Amaterasu managed to seal Ōkuninushi back then, or how his soul was made to reincarnate continuously in the Human World. It seems Amaterasu cleansed all his soul’s mories, allowing Ōkuninushi to reincarnate for thousands of years without rembering his past.
In this regard, Chen Yu might be curious, but he is not inclined to investigate, for the Necromancer excels in such matters. In terms of thods, the ones Chen Yu could employ would only be more advanced.
Moreover, the key issue is, who knows whether Chen Yu’s exploration might cause the Glasses Doctor to awaken to his previous life and regain Ōkuninushi’s mories?
So it’s better not to ddle, let everything proceed as usual, and let the Glasses Doctor remain an ordinary surgeon whose na no one can rember.
That is how Chen Yu thought, and naturally how he acted, not giving any special treatnt to the Glasses Doctor despite knowing his unique identity. He treated him as an ordinary doctor, just like always.
“These are the patient records that need to be admitted to General Surgery this week. I’ve already marked the responsible doctors, so you all can go through them yourselves.” Chen Yu handed over the patient records received from other hospitals this week to Doctor Higashiyama, indicating for him to distribute them.
This was a weekly routine. The University Hospital does not handle ergency cases but accepts transferred records in advance, helping doctors to analyze the patient’s condition beforehand and save ti during consultations.
After the records were distributed, the General Surgery doctors naturally began reading the patient records they were responsible for, to understand the situation.
However, today, Chen Yu ca to the General Surgery office not just to distribute the records. This task could be called out for soone to collect from his office, and there’s no need for him to co in person.
The reason he visited the office was that the hospital was planning to introduce an intelligent AI diagnostic system as an auxiliary tool for doctors in diagnosing patients.
The system’s principle is to analyze the patient’s condition based on existing records, select the records matching the patient’s condition, and diagnose based on those records.
It sounds very reliable, as the system references existing records and AI is evidently free from human bias, allowing for entirely objective and rational judgnt. It can list potential illnesses the patient might have, even calculating probabilities to provide references for the doctor.
But there is an inescapable BUG here: what if the patient’s condition is not present in the AI’s database?
Although modern intelligent systems can achieve so degree of fuzzy associative thinking, the prerequisite for fuzzy associative search is the presence of relatable content in the database.
So rare diseases are entirely isolated on the records without any point of reference or comparison. In such cases, human doctors can attempt to explore treatnt thods based on experience, but AI might be helpless.
So fundantally, it’s people using machines, not relying on machines, and Chen Yu specifically ca to the office to remind these doctors under him to understand this point, not to over-rely on machines to the point where they cannot treat illnesses without them.
Seeing everyone engaged in reviewing the records, Chen Yu felt it was about ti and spoke: “The hospital has recently introduced an intelligent AI diagnostic system, which is currently being installed and tested but should be operational soon. This system’s main function is to comprehensively analyze the patient’s test results and provide a diagnosis, giving treatnt plans based on existing records. It can significantly reduce our daily workload and improve our consultation efficiency, making it a very useful tool.”
Chen Yu paused here, seemingly allowing everyone in the office hearing this news to digest the information.
Once it seed everyone understood his words, Chen Yu continued: “However, I’d like to remind everyone that AI’s diagnostic analysis is based on existing record data, and the diagnostic plan also cos from existing diagnostic plans. So if a record is unrecorded or particularly uncommon, even AI might misdiagnose it.
The true treatnt of patients is done by us, the doctors, ourselves. AI is rely an aid to consultation, a tool to save ti. I hope you use this tool, rather than beco slaves to it. Do you understand?”
“Yes, Professor!” Chen Yu’s final sentence was sowhat stern, causing all the doctors to straighten up, responding seriously.
The developnt of technology naturally brought about many changes, such as the AI diagnostic system being one of those changes brought by technology.
By using big data to analyze patients’ test results to determine the possibilities of them having certain diseases, it is evidently more reliable than solely relying on a doctor’s own experience.
But fundantally, it’s still humans using machines, not humans becoming puppets commanded by the machines, or even becoming machine components themselves.
However, Chen Yu understood that these words were just a reminder. Whether these doctors could truly take them to heart was up to individual interpretation.
So after finishing this matter, Chen Yu prepared to leave the General Surgery office and return to his own office.
However, as he reached the door, his gaze swept over the Glasses Doctor, and after a brief pause, he went over to him and asked, “Glasses Doctor, how have things been between you and Nurse Chief Chiba recently? What stage have you reached?”
Nurse Chief Chiba was the chief nurse at the hospital where Chen Yu and Hiromi Jounouchi previously worked. After they ca to the Eastern University Affiliated Hospital, their contact decreased. However, earlier Hiromi had introduced Nurse Chief Chiba to the Glasses Doctor, and there seed to be a good developnt between them, though the current outco was unknown.
Chen Yu only rembered this matter recently. After knowing the Glasses Doctor was the reincarnation of Ōkuninushi, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of peculiar dislocation. A deity falling in love with an ordinary person; it’s a classic motif in mythology!
Yet, the Glasses Doctor seed indifferent, only responding with slight shyness: “Sonoko and I have now confird our relationship, and it’s all thanks to the introduction from Professor Jounouchi. Please convey my thanks to the Professor!”
“Is that so? Well, congratulations, I’ll definitely pass on your thanks to Hiromi.” Chen Yu couldn’t help but smile upon hearing the Glasses Doctor’s words.
