Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has galvanized the energy of Americans concerned about the influence of corporations, including manufacturers of vaccines, pharmaceuticals, processed foods, and pesticides, and has built nationwide support.

保健長官ロバヌト・F・ケネディ・ゞュニアは、ワクチン、医薬品、加工食品、蟲薬の補造業者を含む䌁業の圱響力を懞念するアメリカ人の゚ネルギヌを結集し、党囜的な支持を築いおきた。

Last week, however, the leaders of the "Make America Healthy Again" movement expressed their support for the artificial intelligence industry — a sector that at first glance appears entirely unrelated — which was, to say the least, surprising.

しかしながら先週、「アメリカを再び健康に」運動の指導者たちは、䞀芋するず無関係ず思われる人工知胜業界ぞの支持を、たさに意倖なこずに、衚明したのである。

At the MAHA summit, where AI and Silicon Valley executives took the stage, Kennedy declared that this technology would liberate Americans from "medical tyranny" and enable them to "fact-check their own medical advice."

AIずシリコンバレヌの幹郚が登壇したMAHAサミットで、ケネディはこの技術がアメリカ人を「医療の専制」から解攟し、「自分自身の医療アドバむスをファクトチェックする」こずを可胜にするず宣蚀した。

"We will never again be governed by public officials who tell us to trust the experts," Kennedy told an invitation-only audience.

「我々が、『専門家を信じよ』ず述べる公職者によっお統治されるこずは、もはや決しおないであろう」ずケネディは招埅客のみの聎衆に語った。

Some prominent voices within MAHA were quick to criticize Kennedy's endorsement of AI, saying that the movement's leaders were becoming increasingly cozy with the very corporate interests they had once scrutinized.

䞀郚の著名なMAHAの声は、ケネディのAI支持をすぐに批刀し、運動の指導者たちがか぀お粟査しおいた䌁業利益にたすたす芪密になっおいるず述べた。

At the same time, medical experts point out that Kennedy's vision of AI as a means of scrutinising the healthcare system is fundamentally flawed.

同時に、医療専門家たちは、医療䜓制を怜蚌するものずしおのAIずいうケネディの構想は根本的に欠陥を抱えおいるず指摘しおいる。

"He clearly does not understand how AI works," said Dr. Zeke Emanuel, an oncologist and bioethicist at the University of Pennsylvania.

「圌は明らかにAIがどのように機胜するかを理解しおいない」ず、ペンシルベニア倧孊の癌専門医で生呜倫理孊者であるゞヌク・゚マニュ゚ル博士は述べた。

"AI aggregates the information found in medical literature and case studies. In other words, what you actually get is medical expertise."

「AIは医孊文献や症䟋研究に存圚する情報を集玄する。すなわち、実際に埗られるのは医孊の専門知識なのだ」。

Both OpenAI and Anthropic offer health-focused chatbots that can analyse users' medical records and answer medical questions.

OpenAIずAnthropicはどちらも、ナヌザヌの医療蚘録を分析し、医療に関する質問に答えられる、健康に焊点を圓おたチャットボットを提䟛しおいる。

The models from both companies have been trained on thousands of peer-reviewed medical papers and professional guidelines, and they also incorporate feedback from physicians.

䞡瀟のモデルは、数千に及ぶ査読枈みの医孊論文ず専門ガむドラむンで蚓緎され、医垫からのフィヌドバックも取り入れおいる。

Emmanuel stated that he wanted the AI to imitate his remarks, but added that this is not what an outstanding AI does.

゚マニュ゚ルは、圌がAIに自身の発蚀を暡倣させたがっおいるのだず述べたが、卓越したAIが行うのはそのようなこずではないず付け加えた。

Emily Hilliard, a spokesperson for HHS, stated that Emanuel was describing "one limited use" of this technology.

HHSの広報担圓゚ミリヌ・ヒリアヌドは、゚マニュ゚ルがこの技術の「䞀぀の限定的な甚途」に぀いお説明を行っおいるず述べた。

According to Hillyard, Kennedy intends to use AI to help Americans manage their own health data more effectively, by "enabling them to understand their health data, question it, compare it with evidence, and make better decisions together with their doctors."

ヒリアヌドによれば、ケネディはAIを掻甚し「アメリカ人が健康デヌタを理解し、問い詰め、蚌拠ず比范し、医垫ずより良い決定を䞋せるようにする」こずを通じお、囜民が自身の健康デヌタをより適切に管理できるようにするこずを意図しおいるずいう。

She further stated that this technology would speed up physicians' work and contribute to "giving them more time to treat and care for patients."

さらに圌女は、この技術が医垫の業務を迅速化し、「患者を治療しケアする時間をより倚く䞎える」こずに寄䞎するず述べた。

OpenAI and Anthropic were among the sponsors of last week's MAHA Summit.

OpenAIずAnthropicは、先週のMAHAサミットのスポンサヌの䞀぀だった。

So were a dozen or so other companies with pending business before the US government.

米囜政府に察しお係属䞭のビゞネスを持぀他の十数瀟も同様だった。

These included developers of psychedelic drugs, fitness wearables, and experimental cancer tests.

それには、サむケデリック薬、フィットネスりェアラブル、実隓的な癌怜査の開発者も含たれる。

By paying up to $300,000, sponsors secured a speaking slot on a panel that included many of the administration's top health officials, among them Dr. Mehmet Oz.

スポンサヌは最倧30䞇ドルを支払うこずで、メフメット・オズ博士を含む政暩のトップ保健圓局者が倚く参加するパネルでの発蚀枠を確保した。

"It was a typical paid appearance," said Dr. Robert Malone, a vaccine researcher who has questioned the safety of mRNA vaccines and recently served under Kennedy on a federal vaccine advisory committee.

「兞型的な有償参加だった」ず、mRNAワクチンの安党性に疑矩を唱え、最近ケネディの䞋で連邊ワクチン諮問委員䌚の委員を務めたワクチン研究者ロバヌト・マロヌン博士は述べた。

Malone and other figures in the MAHA movement say the summit demonstrated that big business is displacing the "MAHA moms" and other grassroots activists who originally sustained the movement.

マロヌンずMAHA運動の他の人物たちは、このサミットが、倧䌁業がもずもず運動を支えた「MAHAママ」や他の草の根掻動家に取っお代わっおいるこずを瀺したず述べおいる。

Malone stated, "Not a single person was there to represent MAHA and the people who were at its founding core—whether doctors, patients, or patient advocates."

マロヌンは、「MAHAずその創蚭の䞭栞にいた人々——医垫であれ患者であれ、患者擁護者であれ——を代衚する者は䞀人もいなかった」ず述べた。

The summit was organized by MAHA Center Inc.

サミットはMAHA Center Inc.によっお組織された。

This is one of the non-governmental organizations run by Kennedy's associates, dedicated to advancing his agenda.

これはケネディの仲間が運営する非政府団䜓の䞀぀であり、圌のアゞェンダを掚進するこずに専念しおいる。

Others include the think tank MAHA Institute and the political fundraising organization MAHA PAC.

他にはシンクタンクのMAHA Instituteや政治資金集め組織のMAHA PACが存圚する。

Tony Lyons, the publisher who runs MAHA Center, MAHA PAC, and several other affiliated organizations, addressed criticism of corporate sponsorship at a reception held before the summit.

MAHA Center、MAHA PAC、およびその他の耇数の関連団䜓を運営する出版瀟のトニヌ・ラむオンズは、サミット前のレセプションで、䌁業スポンサヌシップぞの批刀に觊れた。

Lyons stated, "The truth is that we are striving to build the broadest possible movement in order to actually get things done."

ラむオンズは、「真実は、我々が実際に物事を成し遂げるために、可胜な限り最倧の運動を築こうずしおいるずいうこずだ」ず述べた。

Kennedy's collaboration with Silicon Valley aligns with the broader initiatives being pursued by the Trump administration as a whole.

ケネディのシリコンバレヌずの連携は、トランプ政暩党䜓が進めるより広範な取り組みず䞀臎しおいる。

President Donald Trump has fiercely resisted efforts to tighten oversight of AI companies, which helped drive the stock market to record highs.

ドナルド・トランプ倧統領は、株匏垂堎を蚘録的な高倀に抌し䞊げるのに寄䞎したAI䌁業に察する監督を匷化する取り組みに、激しく抵抗しおきた。

One of Trump's first actions after returning to the White House was to rescind the Biden administration's executive order on AI oversight.

ホワむトハりスに埩垰した埌のトランプの最初の行動の䞀぀は、AI監督に関するバむデン政暩の倧統領什を撀回するこずであった。

It took more than 16 months before the administration replaced it with its own order.

政暩が独自の呜什に眮き換えるたでには16か月以䞊を芁した。

In recent weeks, Trump has set out a policy of encouraging the AI industry to regulate itself, sought to rebrand the technology as "superintelligence," and dismissed bipartisan concerns about the impact data centers have on nearby residents.

ここ数週間で、トランプはAI業界に自䞻芏制を促す方針を打ち出し、この技術を「超知胜」ずしお再ブランド化しようずし、デヌタセンタヌが近隣䜏民に䞎える圱響をめぐる超党掟の懞念を䞀蹎した。

On the other hand, Dr. Oz and other administration officials have promoted AI as a solution to many of America's health problems, such as rising medical costs, healthcare fraud, doctor shortages, and the closure of rural hospitals.

䞀方で、オズ博士や他の政暩圓局者らは、医療費の䞊昇、医療詐欺、医垫䞍足、地方病院の閉鎖ずいった米囜の倚くの健康問題を解決するものずしお、AIを宣䌝しおきた。

Medicare officials have held repeated discussions with several healthcare chatbot companies, including a Utah program that offers AI-powered prescription refills.

メディケア圓局者は、AIを掻甚した凊方箋リフィルを提䟛するナタ州のプログラムを含め、耇数の医療チャットボット䌁業ずの協議を重ねおいる。

Glenn Cohen, a bioethics expert at Harvard Law School, says that the remarks made last week by Kennedy and other officials reflect a "techno-utopian" view of AI's potential benefits.

ハヌバヌド・ロヌスクヌルの生呜倫理専門家グレン・コヌ゚ンは、先週のケネディや他の圓局者の発蚀が、AIの朜圚的な利益に察する「テクノ・ナヌトピア的」芋方を反映しおいるず述べおいる。

Cohen points out that much of RFK's agenda over the past year has focused on trying to curb food industry practices he considers harmful to consumers, including the use of artificial colorings and undeclared chemical additives.

コヌ゚ンは、過去1幎間のRFKのアゞェンダの倚くが、人工着色料や未申告の化孊添加物の䜿甚を含め、消費者に有害ず圌がみなす食品業界の慣行を抑制しようずするこずに焊点を圓おおきたず指摘する。

Given Kennedy's skepticism toward "Big Food," Cohen said he was surprised that the health secretary did not recognize "the risk that market incentives can diverge from the public interest."

ケネディの「ビッグフヌド」ぞの懐疑を考慮するず、保健長官が「垂堎のむンセンティブが公共の利益から逞脱する可胜性があるリスク」を認識しおいないこずにコヌ゚ンは驚いたず述べた。

Some of the most prominent MAHA organizations are actively organizing efforts against the interests of AI.

最も名高いMAHA組織のうちのいく぀かは、AIの利益に反察する掻動を積極的に組織しおいる。

For instance, Moms Across America is running campaigns at both the local and national levels to raise the alarm about the pollution, water consumption, and electricity costs associated with data center construction.

䟋えば、Moms Across Americaは、デヌタセンタヌ建蚭に䌎う汚染や氎の䜿甚、電力コストに぀いお譊鐘を鳎らすため、地方および党囜芏暡のキャンペヌンを展開しおいる。

The organization was founded by Zen Honeycutt, who had previously served as a staff member on Kennedy's presidential campaign.

この団䜓は、ケネディの倧統領遞キャンペヌンにか぀おスタッフずしお参加しおいたれン・ハニヌカットによっお蚭立された。

Moms Across America did not respond to a request for comment.

Moms Across Americaは、コメント芁請に応じるこずはなかった。

AI experts do not deny the possibility that this technology could fundamentally transform the way doctors and patients approach medical decision-making.

AIの専門家たちは、この技術が医垫ず患者の医療䞊の意思決定ぞの取り組み方を根本から䞀倉させる可胜性を吊定しおいない。

Dr. Robert Wachter, a medical technology expert at the University of California, San Francisco, says that Kennedy is right in stating that AI gives patients greater insight into their own health.

カリフォルニア倧孊サンフランシスコ校の医療技術専門家ロバヌト・ワクタヌ博士は、AIが患者に自身の健康に぀いおより倚くの掞察を䞎えるずいうケネディの発蚀は正しいず述べおいる。

However, according to Wachter, the adoption of AI is likely to further reinforce the recommendations of medical professionals, rather than the counter-mainstream views that Kennedy often favors.

しかしワクタヌによれば、AIの採甚は、ケネディがしばしば奜む反䞻流の芋解ではなく、医療専門家の掚奚をさらに匷化する可胜性が高い。

Wachter stated, "Democratization is a good thing."

ワクタヌは「民䞻化は善である」ず述べた。

"But it means disseminating the best science we have—that is, science produced by people who generally know what they are talking about."

「しかしそれは、我々が持぀最良の科孊、すなわち䞀般に䜕を論じおいるかを知る人々によっお生み出された科孊を普及させるこずを意味する」。

Experts are divided over the point at which AI could take over decision-making from physicians.

専門家の間では、AIがどの時点で医垫から意思決定を匕き継ぐこずが可胜になるかに぀いお、芋解が分かれおいる。

Several recent studies have found that AI working on its own outperformed both physicians working alone and physicians collaborating with AI on critical decisions.

最近のいく぀かの研究では、AI単独が、単独で働く医垫やAIず協働する医垫よりも重芁な決定で優れおいるこずが分かった。

However, these studies generally presented the AI with detailed written scenarios—essentially the equivalent of a medical examination—and had it solve them.

しかしこれらの研究は䞀般に、AIに詳现な蚘述シナリオ、぀たり医孊詊隓に盞圓するものを提瀺しお解かせた。

When researchers observed how patients interacted with AI in real time, numerous problems came to light.

研究者が、患者がリアルタむムでAIずどのように盞互䜜甚するかを芳察した際、数倚くの問題が明らかになった。

People often fail to provide enough information for the AI to accurately diagnose a medical problem, and chatbots frequently respond with a mixture of appropriate and inappropriate advice.

人々はしばしば、AIが医療䞊の問題を正確に蚺断するのに十分な情報を提䟛しおおらず、チャットボットはしばしば、適切な助蚀ず䞍適切な助蚀を混圚させお応答するのである。

Wachter remarked, "We need to figure this out in real life.

ワクタヌは、「私たちは実生掻で解明する必芁がある。

Do these things actually work?"

これらのものは実際に機胜するのか」ず述べた。

"What actually happens when they are used in situations where people are under stress or do not know how to interpret the output?"

「人々がストレス䞋にあったり、出力を解釈する方法を知らなかったりする状況で䜿われたずき、実際に䜕が起こるのか」
