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.”
Chatbots make terrible everything.
But an LLM properly trained on sufficient patient data metrics and outcomes in the hands of a decent doctor can cut through bias, catch things that might fall through the cracks and pack thousands of doctors worth of updated CME into a thing that can look at a case and go, you know, you might want to check for X. The right model can be fucking clutch at pointing out nearly invisible abnormalities on an xray.
You can’t ask an LLM trained on general bullshit to help you diagnose anything. You’ll end up with 32,000 Reddit posts worth of incompetence.
