  • A video-conferencing call is generally one-to-one with the clinician you know and have a relationship with.

    An AI app on your phone opens your data to being viewed and scrutinised by a 3rd party within the medical practice or outside. (Which may be a positive, adding other insights that a single person may miss) Unless this is agreed, it would be a breach of patient trust. It seems the agreement you click gives your permission to share your data anywhere that ‘furthers treatment’.

    It seems like massive over reach to install it on your phone, instead of on the doctor’s computer(where it could still summarise all interaction).

    I would say you are right to want to move away from this kind of imposition. If do you change doctor, make sure to indicate that you will not install any apps as part of your treatment.

    At the very least I would install the app under a seperate user than my main account.







  • How well multi-player works.

    If it is coop, like in Bubble Bobble(1986), that needs occaisional partner assists or straight-up player saves.

    Or competitive, like Wipeout 2097(1996), which has excellent catchup mechanics.

    Or larger scale competitive, like Quake1 shareware(Qtest) at 16-player.

    Each of these showed examples of quality play-testing and balancing, making for enjoyable player interaction.

    These days, Cube2:Sauerbraten shows top coop and competitive play in the one game, with insta-CTF interactions largely being good, due to the high quality of sight-line polishing in the base maps.
