✅ Findings:
• Human-in-the-loop translations matched or beat professional quality
• Were most frequently preferred by evaluators
• Took less than half the time to complete
We compared ChatGPT-4o, professional linguists, and GPT+professional (human-in-the-loop) workflows translating hospital d/c instructions for 6 languages.
Thanks @ryanbrewstermd.bsky.social and @alisakhan.bsky.social for leading this new npj Digital Medicine article exploring how human-in-the-loop AI can make healthcare translation safer and faster.

Interesting perspective by UW student Nadia Siddiqui (and many CI leaders and alums including @techmd4thekids.bsky.social
and Ellen Kim) on the ubiquity of AI having reached the clinical setting. Several recommendations on what we should be teaching our clinicians.
