Endoscopists.

Endoscopists.

Words I can't even say.

Look, here we are.

I'm destroyed by AI already.

Anyway, they...

went through periods of working with AI when they hadn't been working with AI and the results were appalling.

Even when they were experienced and should know.

We've seen this happen.

These studies in the medical industry are really interesting, but we've seen this happen in real life in the legal industry, haven't we?

We've seen lawyers actually on several occasions.

In fact, we've had examples of this in Scotland where I live.

seen lawyers actually relying on AI and producing false stuff, false quotes, false cases, false precedents.

Yeah.

So we could end up in a position where most people do not have the foundational knowledge required to spot errors or to really see what is right and what is wrong.

And even people with solid foundational knowledge can still fall into these traps where they don't use their foundational knowledge to spot mistakes.

So what do we do?

Yeah.

And the worry is that we are seeing that in a big conversation, of course, at the moment is around employment and about the disappearance of junior jobs, which we talked about just now.

But that's not theoretical.
