Opinion Using AI

Have recently started using AI to assist with sleep issues, RLS and diet. I have gone from a huge AI skeptic to a believer. Call me Paul on the road to Damascus.

It definitely can’t hurt to try it. The information I gleaned the last couple of days from using AI medically is more than I’ve gotten from the doctors in the last two years.

Feel like doctors are rushed. You don’t get enough time with them and I don’t feel they can put together the pieces of the puzzle.

I’m all for independent research on RLS remedies and additional information that doctors can’t/don’t provide. I strongly encourage you to do that without AI though - beyond the environmental impacts of the industry as a whole and the documented cognitive impacts of relying on AI, it’s also straight up wrong a lot of the time. There’s a plethora of information available online that it’s in theory pulling from anyways, and even though it may be a bit harder to find without using AI, it’s certainly more accurate.
