Recently, I found myself questioning the accuracy of a diagnosis provided by a doctor I visited. Surprisingly, an AI seemed to offer a more insightful assessment. However, I understand the importance of not solely relying on AI-generated information. With that in mind, I’m eager to discover a reputable online platform where I can seek medical advice. Ideally, I hope to find a community where I can obtain multiple opinions to make a more informed decision about my health. If anyone could recommend such a site, I would greatly appreciate it.

Replace the word AI with “fancy autocomplete” and see how comfortable you feel with its diagnosis.

That’s effectively what you’ve done. How see another doctor for a second opinion if you’re concerned; this isn’t something to leave to the internet.

Comparing current LLMs with autocomplete is stupid. An autocomplete can’t pass law or biology exams in the 90th percentile like GTP-4 can.

Actually, by your reasoning, an autocomplete can pass law or biology exams because that’s all that GPT is. It’s a very fancy autocomplete, but it doesn’t know anything. It is not an AGI. It is a limited tool designed to generate text in response to a prompt: a very fancy autocomplete, but an autocomplete nonetheless.

You don’t have any idea of how GPT works. Read about it and then we can talk.

!nostupidquestions is a community space dedicated to being helpful and answering each others’ questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All posts titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That’s it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it’s in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
