As AI chatbots gain traction in various sectors, their role in providing health advice raises significant concerns. Experts caution against relying on these technologies for medical or mental health guidance, emphasizing that they lack the ability to tailor advice to individual patient needs and histories. Recent incidents, including a case where a man was misled into consuming a toxic substance, highlight the potential dangers of trusting chatbot-generated recommendations. The allure of AI chatbots often stems from their accessibility, especially when traditional healthcare options are limited by cost, wait times, or insurance issues.
