ChatGPT Health: What the New Dedicated Tab Adds to the AI Chatbot
ChatGPT Health lets users upload medical records to summarize results and suggest provider questions while excluding diagnosis, amid nine pending lawsuits, OpenAI said.
- This month, OpenAI launched ChatGPT Health as an invitation-only feature with a waitlist, adding a 'Health' menu in the ChatGPT web interface that lets users upload medical records and connect Apple Health and other apps.
- User demand and a recent OpenAI study motivated the feature, as around 5% of ChatGPT users' messages and more than 230 million weekly health prompts drove development, with physicians involved to support clinicians.
- OpenAI says conversations and files are encrypted by default and Health includes 'purpose-built encryption and isolation' while compartmentalizing memories and limiting partner and employee access.
- Legal risks persist, as courts and subpoenas can reach ChatGPT data; a federal judge recently upheld an order for a 20-million-conversation sample, while people who have sued OpenAI allege mental-health harms.
- A published case study described a patient delaying care after trusting ChatGPT, resulting in a transient ischemic attack diagnosis and illustrating clinical risks; OpenAI warns data-use exemptions may change.
