Hallucinations aren't a problem with the actually medically useful tools he's talking about. Machine learning is being used to draw extra attention to abnormalities that humans may miss.

It's completely unrelated to LLM nonsense.

Perhaps, we should consider not calling all of them as AI. Machine learning is a useful tool.
