@nyhan Thanks for taking a closer look than I was willing to. I was repelled on face value (my kneejerk "I'm being sold" reaction, plus recognizing some medical advisor names from the for-profit CME circuit -- including Spencer Dorn, who wrote that Forbes article, which wasn't bad in itself).

I expect #OpenEvidence to be heavily gamed by journal mills, burying reliable evidence in slop. I expect it to further degrade clinician critical-thinking skills (already under heavy workplace pressure).

Not that #UpToDate and #DynaMed are free from controversy (jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman). But after OpenEvidence drives Wolters-Kluwer, EBSCO, and the Cochrane Library out of business, what will be left?

@mattotcha
As a #familyphysician , I'd love to try an #AI assistant to help look up information on diagnosis and management. Searching #uptodate #dynamed and #pubmed is very limited and too time consuming for some cases.
Searching on #clinicalkey or #tufts university's library is horribly ineffective most of the time
