ChatGPT for health care providers: Can the AI chatbot make the professionals' jobs easier?

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said that he was "a little bit scared" of ChatGPT and admitted that his technology would likely destroy "a lot of current jobs." In addition to writing articles, songs and code in mere seconds, ChatGPT could potentially make its way into your doctor's office -- if it hasn't already. The artificial intelligence-based chatbot, released by OpenAI in December 2022, is a natural language processing (NLP) model that draws on information from the web to produce answers in a clear, conversational format. While it's not intended to be a source of personalized medical advice, patients are able to use ChatGPT to get information on diseases, medications and other health topics. Some experts even believe the technology could help physicians provide more efficient and thorough patient care.
