Which result did MYCIN's blind evaluation produce?

  • A.It performed better than every specialist on each of the cases that were put before it
  • B.It performed poorly
  • C.It performed well on common cases but failed completely on the more unusual presentations
  • D.It performed comparably to human specialists

Answer: D

In the 1979 evaluation MYCIN's therapy recommendations were rated as acceptable about as often as those of infectious disease faculty, and better than those of junior staff. It was nonetheless never used clinically, for reasons of liability, integration and the labour of keeping it current. The gap between demonstrated competence and actual deployment is one of the lasting lessons of the period. The shared properties explain why these belong to one family, and the differences explain why more than one exists.
