With hundreds of millions of people turning to chatbots for advice, it was only a matter of time before tech companies began offering programs specifically designed to answer health questions.<\/p>\n

In January, OpenAI introduced ChatGPT Health, a new version of its chatbot that the company says can analyse users\u2019 medical records, wellness apps and wearable device data to answer health and medical questions.<\/p>\n

Currently, there is a waiting list for the program. Anthropic<\/span>, a rival AI company, offers similar features for some users of its Claude chatbot.<\/div>\n

Both companies say their programs are not a substitute for professional care and should not be used to diagnose medical conditions.<\/p>\n

Instead, they say the chatbots can summarise and explain complicated test results, help prepare for a doctor\u2019s visit, or analyse important health trends buried in medical records and app metrics.<\/p>\n
