Reporter looks into claim that an AI epidemiologist sent the first warnings of the Wuhan virus.
That was the headline of a news story in January
wired.com/story/ai-epide… about a program called BlueDot which sent a warning Dec 31
according to new AP story, both a human-run alert system (@ProMED_mail) and a different automated system sent out alerts a day before.
Not clear these automated systems should be called "AI" anyway.
