This was expected. People are going to be convinced that this AI knows more than any doctor, will self medicate, and will die, harm others, their kids, etc. Great work, can't wait to see what's next.
Which makes me think it's likely on the user if what you said actually happened...

It would be absolutely amazing if any sort of tech could say that I'm going to have a serious health problem 6 months ahead of time.
How do you think insurance premiums are calculated?

This isn't feasible for a huge swathe of the USA, often because of costs/insurance but sometimes literally just accessibility/availability. A few years ago it took me nearly 8 months to find a PCP in my city that was accepting new patients (and, wee, they dropped my insurance less than a year after).
Maybe time to ask AI why you’re looking for a technical solution rather than addressing the gaslighting that has left you with such piss-poor medical care in the richest country on earth?
This is absolutely going to kill people. In a country that had even a modicum of regulation around providing healthcare this would be illegal.
Cars, planes, food, scooters, sports, cold, heat, electricity, medication, ...

I mean if someone talked to you your whole life assuming you are autistic,that's kind of fucked up ?
That's kind of how it works though. People who know you very much associate certain traits and labels with you.
It’s probably a very human trait to do that but it is a bad habit.
My uncle had an issue with his balance and slurred speech. Doctors claimed dementia and sent him home. It kept becoming worse and worse. Then one day I entered the symptoms in ChatGPT (or was it Gemini?) and asked it for the top 3 hypotheses. The first one was related to dementia. The second was something else (I forget the long name). I took all 3 to his primary care doc who had kept ignoring the problem, and asked…

I'm sorry, but seriously? How could you not care who has your health data? I think the more plausible comment is "I've been protected my whole life by health data privacy laws that I have no idea what the other side looks like". Quite frankly, this is even worse as it can and will override doctors orders and feed into people's delusions as an "expert".
What is it with you people and privacy? Sure it is a minor problem but to be _this_ affected by it? Your hospitals already have your data. Google probably has your data that you have google searched. What's the worst that can happen with OpenAI having your health data? Vs the best case? You all are no different from AI doomers who claim AI will take over the world.. really nonsensical predictions giving undue weight…
There are no doubt many here that might wish they had as consequence-free a life as this question suggests you have had thus far.
I'm happy for you, truly, but there are entire libraries written in answer to that question.

If every building I went to in the US had ramps and elevators even though I'm not in a wheelchair, would it be "fucked up" that the building and architects assume I'm a cripple?
There's just as much meaning in ChatGPT saying "As you said, you have ADHD" as a building having an elevator.
In the training data for ChatGPT, the word ADHD existed and was associated with something that people call each other online, cool. How deep.
Anyway, I do assume very single user of this website, including myself, all have autism (possibly undiagnosed), so do with that information what you will. I'm pretty sure most HN posters make the same assumption.
The problem with dr appointments is that too often, physicians dont actually think carefully about your case. It's like they one-shot it. This is why I've had my dr change their mind between appointments, having had more time to review the data. Or I get 3 different experts giving me 3 different (contradicting!) diagnoses. That's also why I always hesitate listening to their first advice.
I cannot imagine doctor evaluating just one possibility.
