Me: What should I do if I feel faint?
Bot: Your doctor may use many tools to make a diagnosis:Medical historyComplete examBlood testsSkin biopsy (looking at skin samples under a microscope)Kidney biopsy (looking at tissue from your kidney under a microscope)What are the treatments for lupus?There is no cure for lupus, but medicines and lifestyle changes can he
I would have though advising to sit down may be best…
You may have guessed but I HATE with a passion bots that try to offer medical advice. People that use bots can be very gullible at times and believe that because a computer has told them something, it must be true.
Some people will look at the above and see that because I feel faint, there is no cure and I must change my lifestyle after a doctor looks at my kidney tissue under a microscope! This will genuinely scare some people.
And of course, what if the bot recommends taking an aspirin for something like a headache and it turns out to be some kind of brain injury??
Doctor: Sorry Mr Worswick, but you have a brain tumour that is now so advanced, it is inoperable
Me: WHAT?!?! facebook messenger said I should take an aspirin.
By all means provide definitions but please don’t make a medical bot like this
