#2I typed in "ear pain", and it didn't come up with any conditions.
EDIT: Anyway, what we really need is a crowdsourced solution, where we can automatically correlate our conditions with the conditions of thousands of other patients, and find treatments that have a high probability of working.
We really need this, because right now, for certain diseases there are hundreds of different possible treatment paths. See e.g. the number of drugs available for "depression". We really need big data, the expertise and experience of our doctors alone is not good enough anymore.

#3I just gave this details for a common, non-life threatening condition and it suggested the likeliest condition (at 1% probability) was lung cancer.
Still being worked on, I suppose.

#6Look, this type of patient data intake works for alternative medicine: https://tea.zhya.us .
The reason it does is because there is a human on the other end reviewing the symptoms and creating the treatment plan.
Bring AI when it is needed, leave it out when you actually know what you are doing. Yes, good doctors are not scalable. They should not be.

#7This site demonstrates quite efficiently why it's plainly illegal to advertise the claims that it makes in the headline.

#8So, our family doctor jokes that patients would come to him and say 'Oh, I googled whats wrong with me, I just need your second opinion' :)
Jokes aside, human doctors won't be replaced in foreseeable future, but many people will screw up their lives because non-human gave them the diagnosis (to read, or ai, or webpage), and be late for receiving the appropriate medications.
Think Theranos, but with far greater potential (because there are no physical tests here, it's just text, so the reach is greater) to screw people to not seek the correct help, in a timely manner.
If anything, there should be law outlawing websites like this.

my family doctor is quite happy that patients do research. She says that while some are hypochondriacs who have all the diseases in Google, most of the time it is useful for the patients to have spent some time researching. It saves her explanation time when the patient is informed, and also some edge cases pop up where the patient came in with a good insight.

"If anything, there should be law outlawing websites like this."
There is, don't worry. This would be 'Standalone Software' that is labeled as:
"intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions, or in the cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease, in man or other animals"
So, by claiming to be a Medical Device, it's regulated. And since it seems to be a pretty lousy, unapproved, medical device, it's actually illegal.
Maybe when Theranos.com comes available, these guys could try to snag it though!
