“We need to stop trusting the experts,” Kennedy told Tucker Carlson.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. appeared on the latest episode of Tucker Carlson’s podcast on Monday and it’s filled with the ramblings of a man completely detached from reality.
Kennedy falsely suggested vaccines cause autism, more or less endorsed the idea that Anthony Fauci should go to prison, and says that AI will allow the FDA to approve new drugs very quickly. It’s quite a mess.
These absolutely unhinged ideas wouldn’t be such a problem if this were any other fringe lunatic appearing on the podcast of a racist former Fox News host. But Kennedy happens to be the Secretary of Health and Human Services, a man who’s been given enormous power over America’s entire healthcare system thanks to Donald Trump.
So far I haven’t seen AI that can affect real world physical objects which is a significant part of testing. I have a few guesses… Either he has a bunch of pull-shit he wants to sell that would never be FDA approved, he took a lot of money from AI companies, he thinks that AI these is like Star Trek and shit, or he’s a fucking idiot. My guess is that it’s a combination of all of these.
Depends if the AI is LLMs or task specific protein folding. How AI Revolutionized Protein Science, but Didn’t End It
Gives you a model that can be tested in clinical trials. It doesn’t give you the results of clinical trials.
They’re the same. Just trained on different data.
No no. Protein folding is very different to attention mechanisms
Yes they are. AlphaFold in particular is designed in the same way as Stable Diffusion and all of the other drawing AIs and also uses transformations like llms. Protien structure is just another form of language using atomic elements and electromagnetic potentials as its rules.
