MODERATORS
I think it's fair. An excavator gives us superhuman strength, a train gives us superhuman speed and this system gives us a superhuman ability to spot heart disease. And a wrench gives us superhuman bolt-tightening abilities lol.
Though calling it a "superhuman AI" implies it being better than humans in general, which is definitely not the case (just like with your wrench), so the headline is definitely not accurate and intuitive either.
