I’m a bit more cynical, given Technology’s track record in all other industries. Using AI in medical contexts is quite frightening to me. I don’t think we think it through at the pace it moves.
But if you were going to apply data science/machine learning to healthcare (personally, I dislike the term "AI"), I think that this project would be very close to both how and where you would want it. Peer-reviewed research with independent confirmation, in an narrow, image-based diagnosis, overseen by medical professionals throughout the process (not directly making recommendations to patients), by one of the world's leading medical research institutions.
This isn't a catch-all, and it's certainly possible that cynicism could be warranted down the line. But for me, personally, I think that cautious optimism for this specific situation overrides the cynicism.
