AI in Healthcare: A Helper or a Hindrance?

You’re a doctor, juggling countless patient appointments and piles of paperwork. Enter AI, promising to lighten the load. But is it living up to its hype? AI can automate tasks, assist with decisions, and even predict diseases. But it’s not perfect. Some tools, like those using big language models, can make mistakes. They might suggest something based on reliable research one minute, and a dodgy blog the next. Like a drunk uncle at a party, they seem smart at first, but their flaws soon show.Doctors are right to be cautious. To fix this, AI needs to be more transparent, tested, and reliable. We should only use data from trustworthy sources. And rules need to be in place to make sure AI tools are safe and accurate. If we do this right, AI could really change healthcare for the better, making it more efficient and focused on patients.
