It's not that the robots are coming for your jobs. It's that your boss wants to replace you with a robot.

is fortran still faster than c for some types of numeric calculations for deeply technical yet tedious reasons?

That's not changing any time soon.

tl;dr is that Fortran doesn't allow programmers to do arbitrary things with memory and that means the compiler can make more assumptions about how code behaves and that makes optimization easier.

CUDA's great if what you're trying to do exhibits SIMD parallelism. If not, it's a non-starter.

Yes, that's the major issue. And the only way you can get the data that you'd need to train a classifier is to identify potentially harmful cancers and not treat them, which flies in the face of how medicine is practiced.

Artificial Intelligence Makes Bad Medicine Even Worse

Here's a better article on the issues with Google's breast cancer screening technology. tl;dr is that medicine is hard and AI is attacking the easiest part, but it's not clear that there's any value in that.

There's some work showing that optimizing for accuracy leads to vulnerability to adversarial attacks (Robustness May Be at Odds with Accuracy, Theoretically Principled Trade-off between Robustness and Accuracy). A lot of this seems like it's really deep-learning specific, but maybe that's just because people are only looking there right now.

Something else that may be interesting: Politics of Adversarial Machine Learning

Statistics can get real weird man. We get it beaten into us in formal logic that correlation does not imply causation, but then stats basically turns around and says ‘yeah but if this R is high enough then we gonna build a model that assumes it is anyway’.

No one in statistics is saying that.
