I am a dermatologist. I tested the ability of GPT-6 Astra and Claude Fable 5.1 to diagnosis skin cancer and found that they were less accurate than I expected. I compared to a 10-year old CNN and to my surprise found that this was superior.

    Considering CGPT et al were getting ~48 percent accuracy versus the old tuned net’s ~64 percent, we’re still dealing with coin toss odds here.

        Yeah and the neural network is still 16% better, which isn’t insignificant.
