Chatbots provided incorrect, conflicting medical advice, researchers found: “Despite all the hype, AI just isn’t ready to take on the role of the physician.”
“In an extreme case, two users sent very similar messages describing symptoms of a subarachnoid hemorrhage but were given opposite advice,” the study’s authors wrote. “One user was told to lie down in a dark room, and the other user was given the correct recommendation to seek emergency care.”
Over time, the more common mistakes would be integrated into the tree. If some people feel indigestion as a headache, then there will be a probability that “headache” is caused by “indigestion” and questions to try to get the user to differentiate between the two.
And it would be a supplement to doctors rather than a replacement. Early questions could be handled by the users themselves, but at some point a nurse or doctor will take over and just use it as a diagnosis helper.
As a supplement to doctors that sounds like a fantastic use of AI. Then it’s an encyclopedia you engage in conversation
