Intelligence Is Not the Main Bottleneck
Summary
Intelligence is Not the Main Bottleneck argues that real-world progress in AI-enabled medicine is limited more by governance, regulation, and data-access barriers than by intelligence alone. The piece uses examples like Eroom’s Law, high clinical-trial costs, and regulatory hurdles to illustrate why powerful AI tools don’t automatically translate into faster medical progress. It also critiques a SF monoculture and emphasizes the need to focus on practical bottlenecks and policy reforms over hype about AGI.
