I wouldn’t trust ChatGPT either, but I don’t think it’s designed for medical uses to begin with.
There are AI engines used in medical fields and they can be advantageous in making connections that we haven’t found before. But ChatGPT ain’t it.
Expert systems are a great example of AI perfectly suited for medical applications. A hallucinating chatbot has very limited utility, even where such technology is already in use; one of my wife's physicians' Dax Copilot likes to invent inaccurate details, for example.
