I worry the same thing happening in all fields, especially medical. we train the models on experts, then give the newbies the model… so when and how do we improve and retrain these models, and ok what data?

The thing about medical is that it’s so big - no one expert can cover even a small fraction of “medical”. So, unless you have a whole team of specialists there on-hand, you just might benefit from having some “automated experts” available when you need the pattern recognition they can offer.

The thing about software is that it’s so big - no one expert can cover even a small fraction of “software”. If you’re a kernel driver developer, you might benefit from having some “automated experts” available in CSS/HTML for the pattern recognition they can offer.

I find it amusing how most experts think AI is great for every field except theirs.
