My PCP was on vacation last week and the hospital decided to use a FUCKING AI CHAT BOT to cover him.
You know how I know? I was trying to get a refill of a medication and I cried to two people about how I needed it filled before today because I need to clean my apartment before tomorrow morning when my landlord does inspections so I don’t get evicted for having a dish full of dishes. Because that’s an actual threat when you live in subsidized housing.
Today I got a call back from a nurse who told me that the “doctor” covering my doctor wanted her to call me to GIVE ME FUCKING HOUSING RESOURCES.
Why would I (or should I) need housing resources when I have housing and I’m just trying not to lose it because I have a chronic illness that apparently has no effective treatments except for a few that helped me, one of them being prednisone, which was all I was trying to get. 10 mg of fucking prednisone.
But sure, call me and give me Housing resources because that’s exactly what an AI Chatbot would tell you to do.
