Can AI make better doctors?
If you were a doctor, woken in the middle of the night to decide which patient should get the only available liver, would you be comfortable making that decision yourself? What if an AI device could also do it, or even do it better?
In this episode, Prof. Walter Sinnott-Armstrong (Chauncey Stillman Professor of Practical Ethics at Duke University) gives us the reasons why AI can help people make the kinds of decisions they would make if they were the best version of themselves. Walter gives us examples of AI-judges making bail decisions and AI-doctors making medical decisions, argues that dinosaurs were killed by excessive volcanism than by an asteroid, and why you should be a vegan when you are within a 50km radius of Peter Singer.
Remember people, be savvy!
