CMAJ has been made aware of an error that occurred in the Dec. 2, 2019, issue.1

In the first paragraph of the section “How do humans and AI perform diagnostic tasks and learn to make diagnoses?”, the last sentence read, “A physician solves most clinical problems in an intuitive and deductive way, whereas AI problem-solving depends on access to and analytical and deductive processing of large quantities of data that relate to the case.” It should have read, “A physician solves most clinical problems in an intuitive and deductive way, whereas AI problem-solving depends on access to and analytical and inductive processing of large quantities of data that relate to the case.”

This has been corrected at cmaj.ca.
