GPT-4 Will Hunt For Trends In Medical Records Thanks To Microsoft and Epic
In Monday’s announcement, Microsoft mentions two specific ways Epic will use its Azure OpenAI Service, which provides API access to OpenAI’s large language models (LLMs), such as GPT-3 and GPT-4. In layperson’s terms, it means that companies can hire Microsoft to provide generative AI services for them using Microsoft’s Azure cloud platform. The first use of GPT-4 comes in the form of allowing doctors and health care workers to automatically draft message responses to patients. The press release quotes Chero Goswami, chief information officer at UW Health in Wisconsin, as saying, “Integrating generative AI into some of our daily workflows will increase productivity for many of our providers, allowing them to focus on the clinical duties that truly require their attention.” The second use will bring natural language queries and “data analysis” to SlicerDicer, which is Epic’s data-exploration tool that allows searches across large numbers of patients to identify trends that could be useful for making new discoveries or for financial reasons. According to Microsoft, that will help “clinical leaders explore data in a conversational and intuitive way.” Imagine talking to a chatbot similar to ChatGPT and asking it questions about trends in patient medical records, and you might get the picture. Dr. Margaret Mitchell, chief ethics scientist at Hugging Face, is concerned about GPT-4’s ability to make up information that isn’t represented in its data set. Another concern is the potential bias in GPT-4 that might discriminate against certain patients based on gender, race, age, or other factors.
“Combined with the well-known problem of automation bias, where even experts will believe things that are incorrect if they’re generated automatically by a system, this work will foreseeably generate false information,” says Mitchell. “In the clinical setting, this can mean the difference between life and death.”

Final Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Gameplay Trailer Teases An Epic Showdown With Droids And Bounty Hunters
With just a few weeks left until it launches on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S, one more trailer for Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is now available to watch and sets the stage for what fans can expect from the sequel. Like previous teasers, this trailer focuses on just how dark the galaxy has become in the five years since Cal Kestis rediscovered his Jedi heritage, and in the video below, you’ll see him tangle with a number of enemies from both the prequel and original trilogy eras.
One interesting antagonist that Respawn is teasing in its trailers is Rayvis, a Gen’dai who looks like a purple Hulk if he was wearing Iron Man armor. Eagle-eyed fans will spot the resemblance here to another Gen’dai enforcer, Durge, who showed up two decades ago in Star Wars: Clone Wars, the series of short episodes spearheaded by Genndy Tartakovsky of Dexter’s Lab fame. While the latest trailer shows Rayvis executing some brutal physical attacks in the direction of Kestis, don’t be too surprised if that fight takes a turn towards Resident Evil territory, as Gen’dai typically have a body composed of a mass of slimy tentacles that can quickly regenerate when they suffer any damage.
Their armor keeps their biomass in check, and this warrior race usually adheres to a code of honor when it comes to taking on worthy opponents.

Fortnite Cannot Support More Than 100 Players, Epic Says
Epic Games CEO and founder Tim Sweeney revealed that Fortnite cannot support more than 100 players, at least in the game’s current state.
Speaking to IGN, Sweeney said there’s plenty of room for improvement when it comes to developing games. “I think people are underestimating the opportunity for advances in the programming, language technology, and programming stack to improve the state of game development,” Sweeney said.
“Fortnite Battle Royale is 100 players because we can’t support more. That’s as many players as we can fit on a single server, on a single floor, on a machine.”
