I work in Sweden and it falls under GDPR. There are probably are GDPR implications but as I wrote the question is not legal. I want my bosses to be aeare of the general issue ad this is but the first of many similar problems.
The training data is to be per person, resulting in a tailored model to every single doctor.
It will not be possible to use my own software. The computer environment is tightly controlled. If this is implemented my only input device to the medical records will be the AI transcriber (stupidity).
I'm a psychiatrist in the field of substance abuse and withdrawal. Sure there's a shortage of us too but I want the hospital to understand the problem, not just me getting to use a old school secretary by threatening going to another hospital.
My question is not a legal one. There probably are legal obstacles for my hospital in this case but HIPAA is not applicable in my country.
I'd primarily like to get your opinions of how to effectively present my case for my bosses against using a non local model for this.
As a medical doctor I strongly object to this. Generics are tightly regulated. The substance is the same. What can vary is the binding materials and alike. In very, very rare cases a patient can be allergic to a substance that is specific to a certain brand (and not part of the active substance). This has happened to me only twice. In some countries anticonvusants are the exception where generics aren't used, but that is not practiced everywhere.
Understandable but bad since all newer Windows versions are really heavy on telemetry and privacy hostile practices.
Of course I use Linux but I don't live in a bubble and see that most people won't switch in the near future.
You should care about Linux. The web depends upon it :)
I'd say don't over think it. Just pick a distribution and try to stick with it. The vast choices is also a curse for newcomers. It definitely delayed my journey by years going back to Windows.
Start with something well supported, I'd pick Mint.
Get games or whatever you use the computer for the most to work OK. Nvidia don't like Linux, pick AMD.
Be prepared to give up some old habits instead of forcing windows software on Linux. For example I had to give up Lightroom and as a photography hobbyist it was hard at first. Now I use Darktable and the switch back to Lightroom today seems equally hard.
So in short. Install a beginner friendly distro and get the most important stuff working and begin using the computer as much as possible.
The rendering in Organic Maps is great I think.
I'd say popos. It's very polished and they are both developers as well as hardware people. It works very well. For servers I'd go with Ubuntu, but not for desktops.
But isn't that what this program does? It allows you to choose an instance with admins that you trust. And those who want to review every single one manually can still do that. I'd love this tool. The ones setting up these servers aren't stupid. They can use their judgement and use this tool if they want!
I live in Sweden and pay around 12 dollars a month for fiber 1000/1000 Mbps without data traffic restrictions.
Seeing the fees you pay makes me feel sad.
I agree and I suspect this planned system might get scuttled before release due to legal problems. That's why I framed it in a non legal way. I want my bosses to understand the privacy issue, both in this particular case but also in future cases.
