Lawsuit Challenges ChatGPT’s Medical Practice
A US man filed a lawsuit against OpenAI regarding the use of the ChatGPT application to provide sensitive health advice without proper authorization, which led to his mental health deteriorating and his hospitalization. The plaintiff, David Rosenthal, stated that the model helped him choose medications and even advised him to stop taking some drugs based on unlicensed instructions, violating California laws that prohibit practicing medicine without a license. Researchers pointed out that chatbots sometimes provide inaccurate information, and that monitoring them is challenging, exposing users to health risks without clear mechanisms for reporting or assessing the consequences.
