LLMs are not the same as neural network machine based image sorting. It's been proven more accurate than pathologists.
I would still want a human being to verify the diagnosis before anything gets cut. ;-)
Pathology error rates are too high, everyone should be getting a second opinion and all pathology reports should be cross-checked.
