This is a great thread about AI. #PatientsUseAi #ChronicPain
One of the most powerful things you can do with AI: scale yourself.

Automate repetitive or tedious tasks and free up time for the things only YOU can do (or want to do).

Here’s how I think about it. 🧵👇

We have to stop blaming patients.

This happens when people have no other way to get care - and predators see a way to exploit the situation.

The same is true for Facebook groups.

O.M.G. How gullible do u need to be? Or is it desperate folks with no access to #healthcare? The # of latter folks will grow if feared changes to #Medicaid n #ACA subsidies occur in new administration.

ChatGPT alone did better (LOTS better) than doctors USING ChatGPT. What does this mean for PATIENTS who use AI and bring the results TO the doctor??

It was a tiny study (n=50) but a bigger follow-up is underway. #PatientsUseAI

ChatGPT outperforms docs who *using* GPT: NYTimes. (Small study.)
Doctors *overruled* the AI if they disagreed with it. Will they overrule *patients* who use it?

🚨It's time establish new standards for responsible and transparent use of AI in clinical documentation.

How do you see AI shaping the future of digital health?

A smart colleague called me over to Xitter to see an excellent thread about #PatientsUseAI. Really good stuff - lots of thoughts.

And then, as if by guarantee, in pops one of the resident demons I'd almost forgotten about. What a toilet.

This book is superb. I have a LOT of thoughts about patient empowerment and restructuring the health system (to benefit both patients and docs), and I would have written this book, if I were able. But I don't have the skills of @crblease.bsky.social! open.substack.com/pub/patients...

Host Peters Lee and I had lots of laughs and deep thought, and Chrissy Farr is amazing - I knew that her insights come from her own experience as a patient and pediatric mom.

#AI can be overwhelming & we need to realize this. Select patient advocates get to go to the cool conferences/webinars to receive training with this new tech. Most patients just have to jump into AI without any training. Asking what could I do is a great start. Thanks Dana! #Medsky #PatientsUseAI
What if you *could* do the things that you thought were impossible (or feel too hard, or you don't know where to get started)?

Speaking of overwhelming, what do you do if the pace of AI development feels rapid and you're not sure where to start? Or what to do?
