Honestly? Before the AI craze, I’d have said yes, because I believe AIs tailored to do one specific thing can outperform humans. Today? I’d rather not, as I could not let go of the thought that it might be somme shitty model quickly put together by the nephew of the CEO…
Equally likely, they’re collecting data for their porn generating AI bot.
😬 I’m not sure how I’d feel about porn generated on a data set of potential STIs
Bugchasers everywhere feel kinkshamed by you now
Hey now, it was carefully designed and thoroughly trained on Tinder dickpics
Would I trust the accuracy of the output? No, but it might be a decent warning to get tested to make sure. Would I trust a company with pictures of my genitals attached to my identity? Certainly not an AI company.
but it might be a decent warning to get tested to make sure
just show “better get checked by a professional” as the only result. no AI needed
Great app idea to get pics of genitals!
Just create a twitter account with a model as the avatar and you’ll get the same. With a small chance of fewer deseased pics
Hilarious and depressing
Short answer, yes.
Finding complex patterns in noisy data is an application that AI is actually well suited for. It still requires human follow-up. Anyway, human experts make mistakes in these areas as well. There is a good chance that a well designed AI could be more accurate.
It is already more accurate, in many places in medicine 😇
Locally run AI, yes. Hosted AI, no.
just post your junk on bluesky and crowdsource it.
Twitter is mostly verified dicks these days. That might be the better platform.
Honestly? I’ve leaked pics of those voluntarily, so curiously I’d be a-okay with this one.
… leaked …
Well, there’s your problem.
No no. There’s no problem. That’s what I’m saying Lol.
I was trying to do a “it’s not supposed to leak, that’s probably an STI” joke.
an Impreza with an oil leak problem: embarrassed Pikachu face
Not the headgaskets again!
Not all AI is an LLM. So yes.
What’s the difference between one technology you don’t understand (AI engine-assisted ) and another you don’t understand (human-staffed radiology laboratory)?
Regardless of whether you (as a patient hopelessly unskilled in diagnosis of any condition) trust the method, you probably have some level of faith in the provider who has selected it. And, while they most likely will choose what is most beneficial to them (cost of providing accurate diagnoses vs. cost of providing less accurate diagnoses), hopefully regulatory oversight and public influence will force them to use whichever is most effective, AI or not.

The difference is that people think they understand AI. Even here in this thread, there are people confusing this for an LLM.
AI trained to do that job? Sure, yeah. LLM AI? Fuck no.
AI: “Your penis appears to be an avocado. This is normal, and you should not be concerned. However you have 3 testicles and this should be looked into.”
You, a female: “uhhhhhh”
That’s LLM AI, but the type I’m talking about is the machine learning kind. I can envision a system that takes e.g. a sample’s test data and provides a summary, which is not far from what doctors do anyway. If you ever get a blood test’s results explained to you it’s “this value is high, which would be concerning except that this other value is not high, so you’re probably fine regarding X. However, I notice that this other value is low, and this can be an indicator of Y. I’m going to request a follow-up test regarding that.” Yes, I would trust an AI to give me that explanation, because those are very strict parameters to work with, and the input comes from a trusted source (lab results and medical training data) and not “Bob’s shrimping and hoola hoop dancing blog”.
I’d welcome it.
I could probably teach it a thing or two.
About…STIs?
And love.
Like that movie where Joaquin Phoenix gives Scarlett Johansson a STI.
Would you teach it how to make creepy comments on the internet?
I wouldn’t trust it to tell me if something is or isn’t a banana.
I dunno, maybe the diagnosis is fine but the companies that run it are sure to save copies. I can just see databreaches now, “5 million stolen dick picks uploaded to dark web”. Complete with labelling of which ones are diseased though, so that’s a help.
If we could filter by length, girth, un/cut, ball size, hair amount, and (most importantly) diagnosis… I’m not saying I would put that tool together, but as a user…
Ok press the start button and slowly scan your penis, asshole and testicles. First apply included wax and pull forcefully and swiftly to remove hair.
screams, cries owieeeee, my nutsack…
Every passing day we delve deeper into this hole that is a cold technology driven world. Instead we really should be taking the time to share our outbreaks with friends and family.
no, but not for why you think.
because it’s far more effective to scan samples from you than whole organs.
