Revolutionary AI System Passes Medical Licensing Exam With Flying Colors
A groundbreaking artificial intelligence system developed by researchers at Stanford University has achieved a remarkable milestone by passing the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) with scores in the 90th percentile.
