False positives on tests are a well understood source of illness and iatrogenic harm, as well as being a well known money printer for those administering the tests. Trying to screen for a whack of rare diseases with AI still sounds dubious to me unless you have good reason to suspect one beyond high levels of medical anxiety.

I’m more interested in AIs ability to do things like read x-rays and identify illnesses with higher accuracy than a tired doctor on a 12 hour shift.
