OpenAI just put a health assistant with access to your Apple Health data and medical records into the hands of every free ChatGPT user in the US, and 300 million health questions a week tells you people are already treating AI like a first stop before calling the doctor.
While I know that many, many people use AI to search for health-related items (myself included), I’m not sure how I feel from a privacy perspective. I love being on the bleeding edge of tech and I know that so many companies know way too much about me. But I’m not sure I’m ready yet to let AI know “everything.”
I would be careful enabling this feature. While it may be good for people who might not have immediate or easy access to medical consultation, proceed with caution.
