ChatGPT User Claims AI Chatbot Saves His Do
OpenAI's ChatGPT is taking the world by storm. Its users are now taking advantage of the AI tool to guide them in content creation, research, and even coding.
But this time, the chatbot takes the shimmer of the spotlight in a heartwarming story of a dog, which is considered by many as a man's best friend.
A ChatGPT user took to Twitter to share how the AI chatbot helped him save the life of his furry friend.
According to Business Insider, the Twitter user, Cooper, did what most pet owners would do when their dogs are feeling under the weather. He initially brought the doggo to a veterinarian.
To be fair, the dog named Sassy felt better after visiting the vet. The doctor diagnosed the border collie with a tick-borne disease. And during the visit, she got her treatment.
But after a few days of visiting the vet, the condition got even worse than before. So Cooper went on to go back to the doctor. The pet owner said that "the vet had no clue what it could be" after running tests that checked for any tick-borne related diseases. Instead, he narrates that it "was getting worse and worse."
With that, the Twitter user says the vet suggested that they just "wait and see what happens." He thought to himself that it was not an "acceptable answer."
So here's where ChatGPT entered the picture. It struck him that "medical diagnostics seemed like the sort of thing GPT4 could potentially be really good at." With that in mind, he proceeded to consult the AI-powered chatbot, detailing the situation of his furry best friend.
GPT-4 Allegedly Diagnose Symptoms
The AI-powered tool, ChatGPT, gave a disclaimer to Cooper saying that "[I am] not a veterinarian." It was in response to his query wherein he described the condition of his dog, which was grappling with a high fever.
He then inputted the two sets of blood work from his latest vet visit.
