From the article: Of course, it's not a tool designed to replace medical professionals but to be used in collaboration with cancer specialists to accurately spot the disease and then monitor how successful treatment has been. What's more, this kind of model is a much more rapid, accessible and affordable way to diagnose cancers.

This is the key difference and how AI should be used. It doesn't replace the human but effectively aids them in their research. The whole "outperfoming doctors" pitch needs to change to "Reducing critical misses for doctors." Otherwise it gets roped into the ChatGPT-like AI's which are absolutely garbage for decision making.
