Tell me you don't know how AI works without telling me you don't know how AI or drug testing works.

Republicans: "The vaccines were approved too quickly—they're not safe!"
Also Republicans:
Sidenote: the vaccines were based on research that had been worked on for decades.
I believe that RFK jnr is clearly far far far smarter than the average multibillion dollar international pharmaceutical giant employed specialists. (sarcasm).
RFK is the Right's idea of an intelligent person.
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
If you forget for a second about all the deaths and suffering this ghoul is responsible for, you have to admit this is very funny
Ghoul is the correct term.
New Drug: Worm Eggs.
Effects: Allows worms to hatch in brain which turn populace into dumb fucks
Eligibility: Everyone, delivered at birth to stave off personal growth.
AI: APPROVED!
I'm sorry, he wants to trust algorithms known to make shit up, over scientists who get paid by big pharma to lie? /s
Made Fast, made safe, made effective.
Pick two*.
^*safe is not valid if fast is chosen^
Sugar pills and saline are decently safe and can be made pretty fast
Sounds like tictacs and Gatorade.
Am I not supposed to be operating off of those?
Suglets are delicious. Especially sprayed with amphetamines.
I dunno, the Covid vaccine got prioritized and through the process pretty fast.
The first mRNA vaccine for covid was synthesized within a month of the national emergency declaration. But there was about a year of trials and approvals before it was allowed to be mass distributed.
Which is still blindingly fast. It got EUA or emergency use authorization. Most drugs take 5-10y of trials not including the decade+ of basic R+D to reach approval.
A large reason for that speed was other mRNA vaccines in trials safely for a few decades and the adenovirus being in use for other vaccines already.
other mRNA vaccines in trials safely for a few decades
The Oxford/AstraZeneca adenoviral vaccine has some human testing history, but the mRNA technology had only previously been tested on animals.
Not instantly though. They did the work, they just did it as fast as they possibly could.
In vaccine timelines pretty much instant no?
Every day, I see headlines that make me wonder how The Onion hasn't gone out of business.
I mean, how do you even compete?
That sentence is everything wrong with the world.
That fucking sentence did it for me. Jesus this can be anymore like a 1984 prequel. Orwell was prescient.
I can code this "ai" up for him:
if (drug.name == "ivermectin") {
drug.approved = true;
}
// hell, even:
drug.approved = (drug.name == "ivermectin")
is he attempting to smile or laugh in that photo? it’s so disturbing.
Probably trying to look at a solar eclipse.
Y’know whenever I hear someone talking about the tremendous benefits of turning decision-based processes over to AI, i think to myself, “Self,” i thinks, “that there is one of the stupidest motherfuckers alive today. Or a young programmer.”
Okay but hear me out: We replace the entire executive branch of the US government with AI. It'll be roughly as prone to making shit up as the people in charge already are, but since it's trained on data sets made by people it'll probably act more in line with what people actually want.
Can confirm. One of those programmers is in my team.
What the fuck is this horror show!!!!
Is that a fucking Zyn?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zyn
Sweedish nicotine pouches. Very hip.
Or he just likes chewing on paper like his hero donald fucking trump
Someone who clearly brushes his teeth once a month at most.
And never flosses.
Well a whole new genre of potential apocalypses has been unlocked then
What could possibly go wrong?! 😳
