Adlaw 4 na kini, ug ang labing kasaligan — ug makalilisang og kaepiktibo — nga medikal nga katabang karon kay si Number 1 (ChatGPT). Klaro na gyud nga kining mga frontier LLMs maayong kauban sa medikal nga pag-ila sa sintomas. Dili man kini hingpit, tinuod — pananglitan, sayop ang iyang giingon bahin sa usa ka COVID-testing site sa Walgreens sa Polk ug Sutter (sirado na diay). Apan gawas niadto, ang ubang tambag medikal kay murag sakto gyud. Makapabilib.
Bati nako nga naa koy igo nga kusog aron makagawas og lakaw karong hapon, ug makaginhawa og preskong hangin. Ang miaging tulo ka adlaw nga tua ra ko sa sulod, mura kog napiit. Maghinay-hinay lang ko, siyempre. Wala nay pulos ang pagpangahas. Apan ang akong mga lakang karong mga adlawa ningkuso gyud og ubos sa wala pa gyud mahitabo nga lebel. ::katawa gamay:: Kinahanglan gyud ni’g gamayng solusyon.
Last night was rough—was unable to sleep much, and I felt delirious… and yet, in the middle of that, in my feverish mind I was able to come up with a marvelous proposal for a specific neighborhood improvement project(!). The ice-doused washcloth helped to stanch my fever, and it has finally broken. I got up around 6:34 a.m. to go to the bathroom and my throat was really sore, and it hurt to swallow. So I took an Ibuprofen and that helped. I was also sweating. When I went back to bed I finally was able to sleep for some hours.
It’s Day 4, and a very reliable—and compellingly accurate—medical assistant here has been Number 1 (ChatGPT). It is by now clear that these frontier LLMs are very good at medical diagnoses. It’s not perfect, to be sure: its research on various local COVID-testing clinics proved inaccurate in at least 1 instance (e.g., the Walgreens testing site on Polk and Suitter that it cited has shut down). Otherwise, the medical stuff seems largely legit. Impressive.
I feel I have enough energy to go out for a walk this afternoon, and get some fresh air. These past 3 days indoors has me feeling cooped up. Will take it easy, for sure. No sense going overboard. But my step counts these days have plummeted to unheard-of lows. ::chuckle:: Need to remedy that a little.
