Doctors Were Worse at Spotting Cancer After Leaning on AI, Study Finds

gizmodo.com Aj Dellinger 2025-11-25 10:45:32

Artificial intelligence tools have been shown to help doctors detect pre-cancerous growths in the colon—but don’t even think about taking those tools away once you’ve introduced them. A new study published this week in The Lancet found that doctors who are given AI tools to assist with identifying potential cancer risks in patients get worse at making those same observations when they go back to doing it without AI’s help. The study looked at four endoscopy centers in Poland, tracking the succe

During what's supposed to be a year of redemption, Sonos has announced that its gadgets will become more expensive this year, complicating the company's comeback plans. Tariffs that US President Donald Trump announced last week take effect today, including a 19 percent tariff on goods imported from Malaysia (the levy is said not to apply to semiconductors and was cut down from a 25 percent tariff that Trump threatened in July.)

A Sonos Price Hike Is About to Make a Bad Situation Even Worse

As a company, there are lots of things you can do when people are upset with your product. You could offer concessions (discounts in an effort to drive demand), swap your CEO (that’s a statement and a vibe shift), or you could pledge to do better and actually fix issues making people upset (imagine that!). One thing I would not recommend doing when times are tough, however, is raising prices, but Sonos seems to have been forced into this exact scenario. According to Sonos’ newish CEO, Tom Conra

‘Alien: Earth’ Is Better Than We Ever Dreamed Possible

When the idea was first floated of bringing the iconic Alien franchise to TV, many were skeptical. Films such as Ridley Scott’s 1979 original and James Cameron’s 1986 sequel are all-time classics. Follow-ups, like David Fincher’s 1992 film and Scott’s 2012 return, were also noteworthy for their own reasons. Alien just felt like a franchise that had been very well-explored already and could only be damaged in translation to a different medium. Well, I am elated to report that any skeptics, mysel

While io9 had mixed feelings about last week’s episode of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, one thing about “A Space Adventure Hour” that worked well was its gleeful recreation of 1960s Hollywood. With a bit of chaotic holodeck assistance, the story saw likenesses of the main cast acting out a murder mystery set behind the scenes of a show that very much resembled the original Star Trek, complete with a nerdy creator that’s clearly a stand-in for Trek‘s own Gene Roddenberry.
