    Claude helped me walk me through finding & installing the 3D-Slicer software on my Linux workstation, and a crash course in how to use it to find various interesting bits of my internal anatomy, which was great fun for playing with the CT-scan data I came home with after abdominal surgery.

    It was also pretty helpful at turning medicalese jargon - in the various medical test and report files I accumulated between admission in ER and discharge a few days later - into understandable English. Which was actually pretty cool and reduced my stress levels markedly (that and the opiate pump.)

    Asking an AI to diagnose you from a photo is obviously idiotic. It doesn’t mean they’re useless though; it just means that evidently AI won’t cure stupid.
