And clearly you are not someone who understands the job of a physician.

I respectfully disagree - I think LLM's have already made significant advances in this area as shown in the various "needle in a haystack" demonstrations we've seen over the past couple years. I've already been impressed by the minute but relevant details they can "recall" after being fed very dense journal articles and the technology is only getting better. Also keep in mind that the raw text / "data" itself found in many patients' charts is not always that expansive (though it certainly can be for patients with recurrent admissions). It's more an issue of finding the actual information given that EMR's are a nightmare to navigate effectively.

Hallucinations are always a consideration too, but any implementation of the sort I mentioned before would certainly contain in-text backlinks to actual notes in the EMR. Epic already does this with their basic text search function. So I don't think hallucinations would be too problematic as clinicians should always be verifying this type of information at the source in good practice.

The patient experience is always important and maybe I could've been less implicit in what I wrote. I think I was focusing more on the collective/societal impact this would have, which I felt would resonate more with the readers here.

LLM's have so much potential in medicine, and I think one of the most important applications they will have is the ability to ingest a patient's medical chart within their context and present key information to clinicians that would've otherwise been overlooked in the bloated mess that most EMR's are nowadays (including Epic).

There's been so many times where I've found critically important details hidden away as a sidenote in some lab/path note overlooked for years that very likely could've been picked up by an LLM. Just a recent example - a patient with repeated admissions over the years due to severe anemia, would usually be scoped and/or given a transfusion without much further workup and discharged once Hgb >7. Blood bank path note from 10 years ago mentions presence of warm autoantibodies as a sidenote; for some reason the diagnosis of AIHA is never mentioned nor carried forward in their chart. A few missed words which would've saved millions of dollars in prolonged admissions and diagnostic costs over the years.
