‘we Saw So Many Doctors’: A Mother Says Chatgpt Accurately Diagnosed Her Son’s Medical Condition After 17 Doctors Couldn’t

A mother’s three-year search for her son’s source of pain was answered by ChatGPT, an AI chatbot. Despite seeing 17 doctors, the mother was unable to get a diagnosis until ChatGPT suggested tethered cord syndrome. After plugging in her son’s MRI notes, the mother found similarities between her son and others with the condition, and a neurosurgeon confirmed the diagnosis. Despite its usefulness, experts warn that ChatGPT should not replace a human doctor.
