How the AAMC leadership let things get to the point where their entire business model became dependent on extracting money from desperate residency applicants is simply an astounding feat of mismanagement. Now, any alternative application system threatens their very existence.

Incredible news. The first Generalist Medical AI system is out. DeepMind just announced Med-PaLM M, a Multimodal Generative AI model that understands: 1. Clinical language 2. Imaging 3. Genomics The model reaches or surpasses SOTA on 14 different tasks all with the same set of model weights. "In a side-by-side ranking on 246 retrospective chest X-rays, clinicians express a pairwise preference for Med-PaLM M reports over those produced by radiologists in up to 40.50% of cases, suggesting potential clinical utility." Med-PaLM M was built by fine tuning and aligning PaLM-E - an embodied multimodal language model to the biomedical domain using MultiMedBench, a new open source multimodal biomedical benchmark.
