The Guardian has published a number of articles highlighting the risks of asking health-related questions to chatbots or other AI tools.
For example, Google’s AI overviews provide directly dangerous answers about liver values, which can lead people with serious liver diseases to believe that they are healthy.
Following the review, Google has decided to remove some of the criticized AI summaries. However, there is still a risk that they will appear if the user changes to a different wording.
“There are still far too many examples where Google’s AI summaries give people incorrect health information,” said Sue Farrington of the Patient Information Forum in a comment to The Guardian.
