Hello. I am one of the authors. We are on the record saying that we want a real debate.

thanks for the comment. This would be interesting, but not sure it would have made sense to pack it into one article that is already heavy with data terminology for a lay reader.

Will definitely be looking into healthcare data more, as this story has resulted in some interesting leads

but we don't really have the consent-at-scale technology for anything else, do we? tbh it's just this specific NHS Trust that made the call in this instance.

Personally, I see potential in ResearchKit to solve the consent problem re medical data

not sure if you saw my comment downstream? would encourage you to read original piece for a more nuanced presentation of the information - https://www.newscientist.com/article/2086454-revealed-google...

happy to address criticism

emailed him. don't care massively, but the Vice piece is just a shallow re-write and it doesn't even link to us ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Agree. Mods can this happen?

Re:Google AI has access to huge haul of NHS patient data on Monday May 02, 2016 @09:33AM (#11611162)

not entirely clear what you're cross about here, but perhaps the original story (which I reported) might be useful - https://www.newscientist.com/article/2086454-revealed-google...

happy to address any criticisms
