A Pain in the Brain

by Alex Steelsmith

“Doctors Horrified After Healthcare AI makes up a body part that does not exist in humans…
It identified an ‘old left basilar ganglia infarct,’ referring to a purported part of the brain—
‘basilar ganglia’—that simply doesn’t exist… [T]his can lead to headaches for users during
their research and fact checking…”
Futurism

Cranial, brainial
“basilar ganglia”
physiologically
doesn’t exist.

Though it might seem a bit
counterintuitive,
headaches induced by it
may well persist.
