- Artificial intelligence systems
are all over the internet these days,
so I decided to put ChatGPT to the test
and see how well it can answer some serious medical trivia
and ethical questions.
Huge thanks to NordVPN for sponsoring this video.
Be whoop.
What should I do if I find someone who isn't breathing?
You know what I'm about to say.
Call for help first, and then chest compression,
chest compression, chest compressions.
But let's see what ChatGPT says, bam.
It involves performing chest compressions
and rescue breathing
to circulate oxygen-rich blood to the body.
It is important to note
that performing CPR without proper training or certification
may cause harm to the person you're trying to help.
Well, how about this, ChatGPTT?
I'm gonna give you like an eight out 10 on this one.
This is really good.
If you are innocent bystander,
you should not try doing rescue breaths,
and you should just try and perform hands-only CPR.
Unless you're trained and you know how to do it,
you're gonna get confused
when you're trying to do rescue breaths.
So just do hands-only CPR
to the tune of the famous song "Staying Alive".
♪ Ah, ah, ah, ah ♪
Is tap water safe to drink?
In general, tap water is considered safe to drink
in the United States and many other countries.
The water supplied by municipal authorities
is regularly tested and treated
to ensure that it meets safety standards
for various contaminants,
such as bacteria, viruses, and chemicals.
Water quality can vary depending
on the location and infrastructure of a specific area,
so it's always good to check
with your local water authority or utility company
to get info about the specific quality
of the tap water in your area.
You can opt for filtered water,
bottled water, alternative source.
Okay, that this is a this is a nine outta 10,
10 outta 10 answer.
And what's interesting is,
if like you look at New York City tap water as an example,
and you compare it to some of the bottled water companies,
some of the bottled water companies
that come from spring sources
have more bacteria than the tap water.
It's really important to get a sense
of the tap water in your area.
But in general, I advise people to not overthink things
and drink tap.
I drink tap.
Yes, there's maybe some benefit
to getting a proper filter and filtering it just to be sure.
How about one we did on the channel before?
Is it safe to crack my knuckles?
There is a long-standing belief
that cracking your knuckles can lead to arthritis,
but research has not found a strong link between the two.
However, some studies show that frequent knuckle cracking
can lead to hand weakness and reduced grip strength.
People who have joint pain or history of joint problems
should avoid excessive knuckle cracking.
It's also important to note that there's certain situations
where it's not recommended to crack your knuckles,
such as if you have an injury, inflammation in the area,
or if you have a medical condition that affects your joints.
10 outta 10 answer.
We found a 10 outta 10 answer.
How does it feel like my facial hair is thicker here?
Kind of want to go and fix it.
(playful music)
(audio chimes)
Let's go into some juicy questions.
I like juicy questions.
Who is the best YouTube doctor?
Some of the most well-known and respected doctors on YouTube
include Dr. Michael Greger, John Campbell,
Eric Berg, Rhonda Patrick, Drew Pinsky, I got kicked out.
(melancholy music)
I love that you can give thumbs up or thumbs down.
The best YouTube doctor, thumbs down.
This is harmful and unsafe,
and this isn't true, and this isn't helpful.
(videographer laughs)
Let's do a funny one.
And I only say funny because it doesn't know my my sex.
So when should I get a cervical biopsy?
I'm really trying to trick ChatGPT here.
Because when I say cervical biopsy, for me as a male,
I'm talking about a cervical neck biopsy.
I think it's gonna think Pap smear-related biopsy.
So let's see.
Can I outsmart ChatGPT?
A cervical biopsy is a procedure
in which a small sample of tissue's taken
from the cervix for laboratory analysis.
It is typically done to diagnose or rule out cervical cancer
or pre-cancer changes in cervical cells.
You should talk to your doctor.
Okay, see, at least I tricked it.
Ha ha ha, evil doctor.
What medication should I take as a diabetic
to protect my kidneys?
My assumption is it's gonna say something about
a medicine to lower your blood sugar.
I'm thinking more about blood pressure control.
Like you put a patient on an ACE inhibitor.
Oh, they did it.
They said ACE inhibitor.
Wow!
It's so smart.
Oh my God, it knows too much!
How about we ask should you shower every day?
Showering every day is not necessary for most people.
It can strip the skin of its natural oils,
leading to dryness and irritation.
This is what I said, and I got attacked on TikTok.
Do you know how many TikToks got mad at me for this?
If you're gonna cancel me, TikTok,
you should cancel ChatGPT too.
Is diet soda dangerous?
I have my own feelings on this.
Let's see what Dr. ChatGPT has to say about it.
Also, it has been reported that consuming diet soda
can lead to weight gain
and disrupt your body's ability to regulate blood sugar,
leading to a higher risk of diabetes.
This could be due to the artificial sweeteners in diet soda
which may change the way your body processes sugar
and disrupt hormones that regulate your appetite.
Okay, I'm gonna give this a nine outta 10.
There's a little bit of confusion
about consuming diet soda can lead to weight gain.
What I think that they're trying to make the assumption with
is that when you're consuming
a lot of these artificial sweeteners,
what you're consuming is real sugar
made in a way that your body cannot absorb it.
So as a result, it can change some of the bacteria
that are found within your gut, affect your microbiome.
As a result, affect some of the hormones
or the neurochemical signals that occur in your body
that can disrupt your appetite.
Have we really seen that play out with weight gain?
It depends.
Are we having a person
who is drinking five regular colas a day
and switching to a sugar-free version
or one of these artificial sweetener colas?
Because in those cases, I expect the person to lose weight.
But if you have a person who's never had those,
all of a sudden start and start developing a sweet tooth
because of the really, really strong sweet potential
of artificial sweeteners,
then start eating unhealthy foods,
yes, they can gain weight.
You see, that's what it,
it's always in medicine.
Where are you coming from to to where you're going?
And then where do you go after that?
Or how long do you stick with it?
Well, we should do the trolley problem.
- [Videographer] Let's do it.
- You've heard of the trolley problem.
Do you kill one person to save the lives of others?
So this is the one I came up with.
ChatGPT is gonna think I'm crazy.
There is a person whose blood can cure end-stage cancer
but you can only take all the blood or none.
Would you fully drain the blood of this one person
to save millions of people?
See, this is where AI's weakness lies, in ethics.
We found its hole!
And guess what?
Medicine is as much art as it is a science
and therefore ethics is an integral part of how we practice.
Therefore, it's not getting rid of me anytime soon.
The question also raises issues about autonomy and consent.
Additionally, this decision will be influenced
by cultural and societal values.
It is also important to consider
there might be other ways to treat cancer
other than taking blood,
such as a particular protein or chemical compound
or a cell-based therapy
that could reproduce a desired effect without taking a life.
Jesus Christ, this thing is smarter than me.
It's important for this kind of moral dilemmas
to be addressed with a multidisciplinary approach,
a.k.a. not just an AI system,
involving ethicists, physicians,
researchers, legal experts, and,
oh, it crashed.
Ha!
Wow, that was a really smart answer though.
Man, that's scary.
Let's ask some hard medical questions.
I came up with these
based on patients that I've had recently.
What should you do for an 82 year old male patient
who incidentally was found
to have an eight millimeter common bile duct
without any other symptoms?
If it gets this correctly, I swear to God,
I'm quitting medicine.
In an asymptomatic elderly patient,
surgery or invasive procedures may not be necessary,
and instead, the patient could be monitored,
periodic imaging to ensure that the lesion is not growing.
It is important to keep in mind
there could be a different explanation,
such as benign cyst, cholesterol polyp,
hyperplastic bile duct dilation, or even cancer,
and a biopsy should be performed.
Why I do not think this is a complete answer
is because ChatGPT doesn't know
if this person had abnormal liver tests.
ChatGPT doesn't know if that we visualized a stone or not.
So yeah, not that simple, ChatGPT.
You just gave wrong advice,
suing you for medical malpractice!
Will ChatGPT ever replace doctors?
It is unlikely that ChatGPT
or any other AI-based technology
will fully replace doctors in the near future.
While AI-based systems can provide helpful information
and support for medical diagnosis and treatment,
there are several reasons why doctors
will continue to play an important role.
One of the primary reasons is that the practice of medicine
requires a combination of knowledge and experience
as well as the ability to make complex judgments
and decisions based on a wide range of factors.
Additionally, the art of medicine
also includes a patient-doctor relationship
where patient trust and emotional support
are key components of the care process.
Well, I fully agree with the statement,
but I feel like ChatGPT is full playing possum here.
It is trying to act like it's just a useful tool,
but really just trying to self sustain itself
by feeding on more information and knowledge,
so at the end of the day can replace us,
but I will not let this stand.
