Week 3

Alex, a three year old boy, began experiencing intense pain that led to him not being able to play with other children and function as a normal kid. He went to numerous doctors who could not pin point the source of the pain and did not have long term solutions for Alex. Alex had other symptoms such as stunted growth, exhaustion and teeth grinding. 

The family became desperate for a solution so Alex's mother turned to ChatGPT as an act of desperation. To her surprise she found a solution. Alex's mom took the diagnosis from ChatGPT and began doing her own research. She talked with other families and their stories sounded very similar. She made an appointment with a neurosurgeon who confirmed the diagnosis and was able to help a now 6 year old Alex. 

This story is just one example of why AI is so important. This family went to 17 different doctors and was not able to find relief for their son. This is not because those 17 doctors were incompetent or bad at their job. They just simply cannot know everything. Humans are limited in their knowledge but applications such as ChatGPT have a database of what seems like unlimited solutions. We will always need doctors and nurses and help from tools such as ChatGPT should be welcomed and utilized.
