A comment on AI misses nearly one-third of breast cancers, study finds. Parent comment

Huh? I was commenting that there were no controls and the doctors were given skewed data, so any conclusions of ai ability vs Dr ability seem misplaced. Which seems to be what you just said… so I am confused about what I said that was inaccurate.

Can you clarify?

I also hinted at the fact that I only had access to the posted summary and the original linked article, and not the study. So if there is data I am missing… please enlighten me.

I was just reinforcing that point as your comment was worded in a way that left room for doubt. Sorry if this came across as critical toward you or implying you held a different interpretation.
