Josephine Fealy @jfealy.bsky.social · 07/12/2025One thing I’m unsure about with using AI to perform biology/medicine work is, how is it trained? I think there’s a benefit to using massive data to help discover things quickly, but if we’re training it to look at it the same things we do the same way, are we not just replicating our blind spots? 010
