Tldr: Claude makes reports and dashboards for ebola health workers

Claude is helping the organization (people) react faster, and more accurately.

The article mentions: you defeat Ebola by meeting it where it is now, not where it was. You can only beat it by stopping the spread of the infection, so it's very critical to move with speed and accuracy. Dashboards and reporting aren't very glamorous, I know, but we're really dealing with the flow of information to stop the spread of infection.

Intelligence is the ability to predict, and we need information to do it. It wasn't directly said in the article, but the information allows you to see patterns and predict spread, and meet Ebola 'now'.

As in, imagine the moment in time where you predict Ebola will be, and then take every measure to have an advantage over it. The reports and dashboards help you to imagine, predict that future 'now' moment.

If you don't have accurate information then you are always behind the disease chasing its spread.


> it's very critical to move with speed and accuracy

Traditionally one of the weak points with this tech has been accuracy, are there new techniques to increase or verify the validity of the dashboards being generated?


You are correct, and I don't know. The only way to know is to listen to the people using the tool, but also measure the results. So you would need to compare past, similar responses to today's response, and factor in any new techniques/knowledge used in fighting the disease to accurately compare.

I think they’d rather be problem-solving messy human logistics than putting together presentations!

people this young don't even know all the words in your comment

It's only a matter of time now before all software is gamified with globular nonbinary mascots and pets


> nonbinary

Why does an AI mascot need to be binary? It makes much more sense to me for an AI to be an "it" or a "they" than a "he" or a "she".


Woke is over dude, you can take the mask off now

I can and do wear my meta glasses in public. There's no way I can ever wear this in public

The battery life on these devices is way too low for that

I do admire mark's tenacity

Title should say it's Australia's medicare

You'd think that it was announced by Australia's prime minister and the report is on an Australian website would give it away...

It doesn't

Learn to be a plumber! Lol

What we really need is people building houses. Unfortunately the economy will collapse if we make housing affordable.
