I agree with you! We must encourage developers and ML engineers to come up with solutions like these. Medical costs are too expensive nowadays. Even health insurance won't cover all the costs.

If suggesstion provided by these models are atleast 70% reliable, still it's better. You can have an AI companion with whom you can chat and discuss about your problems. AI won't judge you. AI will listen to your problems patiently. And like your friend whose advices are not 100% reliable. Advices from AI assistant who can be your virtual friend won't be 100% reliable. But, still you will have someone talk to. Think about people who don't have friends or family. Whom they should to connect to? AI can be atleast their virtual friend and advisor, atleast not 100% correct. But, even your friends are not 100% correct too.
