You have a patient safety issue, not a PR issue. The 6 month regulatory reporting timeline is the formal process, not the ethical or legal obligation to act now. Waiting for more data while patients continue to be exposed is criminal negligence exposure, not risk mitigation.

1. For the experienced software engineer Think of an LLM as a massive, stateless API with no rules, just a huge compressed lookup table learned from data. It learns by training a transformer — essentially a stack of attention layers — as a next-token predictor via gradient descent on trillions of tokens.
