    Yeah. So medical writers have it really rough. I was making $100k+ last year. I just exhausted unemployment. The problem is that you can feed AI a list of approved claims and basically feed it a ton of examples and it gets 85% of the way there. Of course it’s ripping off our work to do that, but cash is king. I haven’t checked in a bit, but website traffic was down 90%. So, they essentially lost millions to save $100k.

        WEBMD is pretty much ecyclopedia for diseases, something you can use wikipedia for too.i think medical writer, would write something to be approvable or not by the insurance or billing.

        More like a claims database. We relied a lot on PubMed, which hosts a wealth of clinical data, original research, case studies, systematic reviews, etc. I love PubMed. It’s the Brooklyn Bridge of peer-reviewed stuff.

          oh yea, i used ncbi/pubmd to look for articles, and then search for the whole research article on places like researchgate. from the job search site, ai also ruining peoples ability to get interviewed, because AI is used to screen applicants, and applicants using it to make hordes of “resume”
