This seems like an easy question to answer. The liability lies with the user until they seek the professional advice of a doctor.
Say a user decides to self-diagnose and damages themselves (either through inaction or self-medication or whatever). What difference does it make whether they diagnosed themselves by browsing symptoms on wikipedia or using an advanced diagnosis AI on their phone?
