    I suppose most sensible people already know that ChatGPT is not the answer for medical diagnosis.

    Prompts were input to the GPT-3.5-turbo-0301 model via the ChatGPT (OpenAI) interface.

    If the researcher wanted to investigate whether LLM is helpful, they should develop a model specifically using cancer treatment plans with GPT-4/3.5 before testing it thoroughly, in addition to entering prompts into the model that is available on OpenAI.

      Or they could feed the current model with a reputable source of medical information.

        That wouldn’t guarantee correct answers.

        It’s arguably more dangerous if ChatGPT gives mostly sane specific medical advice because it makes people put more trust in it than they should.

          True but it would reduce the chances of it making stuff up entirely.
