Lawsuit Accuses ChatGPT of unlicensed medical practice
An American man has filed a lawsuit against OpenAI due to the artificial intelligence application ChatGPT providing sensitive health advice without authorization, which led to his mental health deteriorating and his hospitalization. The app is accused of practicing medicine without a license, as it offered medication suggestions and reassured him despite ignoring medical prescriptions. This constitutes a violation of California state laws. The lawsuit points out that the AI helped him discontinue his medication improperly, highlighting the dangers of inaccurate information provided by AI models in healthcare, especially in the absence of oversight and accountability. Meanwhile, recent research has revealed that chatbots often provide users with incorrect information, and regulating this sector remains a challenging and complex issue.
