It’s finally out! We brought a multidisciplinary team of physicians, computer scientists, and engineers to red team LLMs for healthcare uses. And we have shared the dataset! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Required reading If you ever use models to brainstorm. Really nice study design: Domain expert researchers search for plagiarized papers of LLM- systems that generate research plans. Many successfully find papers, verified by authors of those papers. But very hard to detect, see screenshot.
Figure 2 from the paper showing a one-to-one mapping between methods generated by a model and methods from a real paper. The mapping is exact by the language used is very different.

Clinical #AI has come a long way, but are we losing some of the core principles of NLP? Dr. @emilyalsentzer.bsky.social discusses how early rule-based approaches still offer valuable lessons for today’s AI-powered clinical decision support. Full episode: nejm.ai/4gOGeSo #MedSky #MLSky

To move forward as a field, clinicians need to design benchmarks that better align with the tasks LLMs are expected to perform upon deployment. Read the editorial by Inioluwa Deborah Raji, BAS, @roxanadaneshjou.bsky.social, and @emilyalsentzer.bsky.social: nejm.ai/3PK8v1D #MedSky #AI #MLSky
Editorial

To evaluate LLMs for clinical applications, we must move beyond fixed, narrowly scoped datasets and develop a suite of benchmarks that reflect the complexity and diversity of real-world clinical tasks.

Medical licensing exams are convenient, but don’t reflect real-world clinical tasks. With LLMs already in EHRs, we need evals to match real-world needs. Let’s partner w/ hospitals piloting these tools to create diverse task-specific evaluations. w/@rajiinio.bsky.social @roxanadaneshjou.bsky.social
