Summary
OpenAI has launched ChatGPT Health, a dedicated platform for health-related interactions, reflecting the increasing demand for AI-driven medical inquiries, with over 230 million health questions posed weekly. This separation of health dialogue from general interactions aims to safeguard user privacy while allowing integration with personal medical data from wellness apps. While this innovation may help alleviate pressure on healthcare systems by providing accessible advice, it also raises concerns about the reliability of AI-generated medical information and its implications for patient care. Healthcare professionals must remain vigilant regarding the use of such technologies and their integration into clinical practice.
