Top AI models are acing medical benchmarks, but are they actually ready for the clinic? A groundbreaking study reveals that impressive scores can hide a dangerous lack of real-world robustness. In this episode, we break down the ingenious "stress tests" that expose how AI can succeed on an exam for all the wrong reasons—from guessing answers without seeing medical images to failing when the question format is slightly changed. Tune in to understand why we must move beyond leaderboard scores and start demanding real proof of clinical readiness.
