Summary
Microsoft's new AI medical tool, MAI-DxO, has demonstrated an accuracy rate of 85.5% in diagnosing complex medical conditions, significantly outperforming human doctors, who averaged only 20%. Utilizing an AI "orchestrator" that combines capabilities from major tech companies, this tool could potentially reduce diagnostic costs by 20% and is seeking FDA approval for treatment prescriptions. However, its testing methodology has raised concerns about fairness and real-world application, as human doctors were restricted from using external resources during evaluations. The emergence of MAI-DxO highlights a critical turning point in healthcare technology, suggesting that AI could increasingly supplement or even replace human roles in diagnostics.
