A #study published in #Nature Medicine found that #OpenAIโ€™s #ChatGPT #Health chatbot frequently #underestimated the #severity of #medicalemergencies, recommending delayed care in over half of cases where doctors would send patients to the ER. The chatbot also over-triaged non-urgent cases and inconsistently responded to suicidal ideation scenarios. https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/chatgpt-health-under-triaged-half-medical-emergencies-rcna261409?eicker.news #tech #media #news
