AI Recommendations Can Lead to Health Issues

Artificial intelligence can sometimes lead to dangerous outcomes in health. A recent incident in Canada highlights this issue.
A 60-year-old man consulted ChatGPT to reduce his salt intake. The AI recommended using sodium bromide. The man used this substance in his meals for three months and began experiencing paranoia and hallucinations.
Eventually, he thought his neighbor had poisoned him and went to the hospital. However, it turned out he was suffering from bromide poisoning. Experts warn against blindly trusting AI health recommendations.
This incident shows that AI technology cannot replace human expertise in health matters. It is emphasized that caution is necessary when receiving health advice.
