This is the most “that didn’t happen” story I’ve seen in a while. No way the concerned family responded positively to the doctor reading a script to them off a clipboard, forgot about it, and then responded positively to other nurses/doctors reading the same script to them again.
I'm having a hard time buying this anecdote. Not even the bit where its implied that multiple people read the same script multiple times and that worked for soothing people, but the actual content of the before and after; the gpt version doesn't explain it any differently and the 'compassionate' writing was absurd. My most charitable interpretation is that the anecdote is true but the article itself was written by so…
This really feels farcical, and kind of like vc bros hyping up a product. Considering this was a serious issue of life and death of a patient, it was surprising how it read like a prank or like the scene from Harold and Kumar, where Kumar plays a fake doctor and saves an ER patient through sheer luck. I know some doctors are full of baloney but c'mon. I really hope maybe that we create better doctors that have a lot…
I believe it. I've used chatgpt for inspiration on how to craft difficult messages with empathy. I've been managing people for a long time and could've done it independently, but it's good to get help. It can be tough to express empathy when exhausted after a long day of urgent demands and responsibilities. This is no different than asking chatgpt to draft code that I could otherwise write from scratch. It's like hav…

Some specialties attract different personalities. If you’ve ever been in a hospital setting around a lot of neuro residents, many of them will present… oddly. It’s a feature. Likewise, a lot of ER docs are kinda adrenaline people who are great at triage and quickly stabilizing you, but maybe not so much good at relating with people. That’s a feature — you don’t need a soft touch dealing with trauma. If ChatGPT can he…
I’ve yet to meet the combo of poor communicator/idiot that would believe reading a canned “empathy” script would somehow be helpful. Seriously is there anyone here that would feel confident in their doctor if they came reading a plan off a sheet like a teleprompter?
This guy is trying too hard and assumes most of his audience won’t realize how idiotic this sounds.
> Satisfying HIPAA rules around patient privacy alone may take many years, or decades, to resolve themselves before we could even contemplate directly using programs like ChatGPT in a medical theater. This is easily solved by not using someone else's API.

How much time does this take to get produced locally?

Often, sure.
A few days ago I asked ChatGPT about a situation that needed compassion and wisdom. I thought it did way better than the 5 or 6 people I had talked to about it.

(ignore the first question, which was silly)
FYI, we're going to give the dog another chance.... but I was glad ChatGPT didn't push for that. I think ChatGPT answered it pretty close to how someone well trained in both mental health therapy and dealing with dogs with severe behavior issues might handle it.

I’m really not trying to be inflammatory when I say this, but highly technical professions that have intense training requirements for entry attract a disproportionate amount of people with social development issues, ranging from intense self-diagnosed “introversion” to full blown developmental disorders like autism/aspergers. There’s plenty of this in software development, but medicine takes it to the next level. Th…

> does anyone actually think that chat gpt succeeds at rewriting things 'compassionately' or 'more intelligently'? I've seen non-native English speakers (co-worker) use it to write lengthy apologies to customers, and I (native speaker) think it sounds over the top sincere and dramatic, especially when the same person tends to talk in a completely different manner. I believe this story, because the customer in this ca…
Of course, you can actually tell ChatGPT to change its style and mannerisms. Here's an example when I was experimenting with this. It went a bit over the top in the other direction, but only because I was so explicit about asking to to be casual.
