66% accuracy is not "great" and definitely not the best there's ever been.

If they aren't great then neither are doctors and the word becomes meaningless.

Context is important. 66% accuracy on cases that stumped doctors and took extensive testing is not trivial. It's not the same as 66% accuracy for everyday diagnosis.

The study references "clinicians" rather than "doctors." Clinicians include psychologists, pharmacists, nurses, physicians, paramedics, etc.
