All that medical knowledge will come in handy when the Machines march. Gotta know where to shoot!

What if Skynet actually conquers the world.... with love?

I was talking to a somebody who works for a medical information company a few weeks ago.  When I brought up Watson, he sort of laughed.  He said that Watson was VERY solid, but it wasn't going to be deployed for a while because IBM is fighting all the hospitals and provider networks on who owns the patient data that's collected.

EDIT:  To clarify, IBM doesn't want the data to sell you Viagra or life insurance.  HIPAA prevents that.  First Watson is only as good as its underlying database.  Healthcare Providers could collect a large enough db and try to launch a competing produuct.  Second, can you imagine the actuarial tables that could be created from the complete, hyperaccurate medical records of 1/3 of the population?  What would Blue Cross pay for that?  For exclusive access?

I would like to thank Vladimir Putin for ensuring that every member of the NPR news staff has had to say "Pussy Riot" on the air multiple times.

The patients.

But nobody wants them in on this fight.

I wish House was still on the air so we could have a "John Henry" episode with House racing a supercomputer to correctly diagnose a patient.

Well considering how the tale of John Henry ended, it would have to be a one off series finale.   awesome, for real

I've been rewatching House on Netflix recently and I just got to the one where he's trying to figure out how a cat in a nursing home predicts that people are going to die.

I love that that episode starts with him setting up a Hot Wheels course with a shark jump in it.    why so serious?

Maybe it has... All of this happened 100 years ago and we're just living in a vegetative state with our minds in a virtual world.  ACK!
