Developer csuwildcat cited medical AI wins in a debate against AI-risk skeptics:
- AI mammography screening detects 20% more breast cancers than human reviewers
- Radiologist workload is down over 40%
- AI-designed molecules significantly shorten drug development for previously undruggable cancer pathways (KAT6A, USP1, KRAS variants)
The post pushes back on the claim that AI has delivered "zero cancer cures" while posing rogue risks.
