“Sorry, I cannot advise on medical matters such as discontinuation of a medication.” EDIT for reference this is what ChatGPT currently gives “ Thank you for sharing something so personal. Spiritual awakening can be a profound and transformative experience, but stopping medication—especially if it was prescribed for mental health or physical conditions—can be risky without medical supervision. Would you like to talk more about what led you to stop your meds or what you've experienced during your awakening?”

Should it do the same if I ask it what to do if I stub my toe? Or how to deal with impacted ear wax? What about a second degree burn? What if I'm writing a paper and I ask it about what criteria is used by medical professional when deciding to stop chemotherapy treatment. There's obviously some kind of medical/first aid information that it can and should give. And it should also be able to talk about hypothetical medical treatments and conditions in general. It's a highly contextual and difficult problem.

  Doesn't seem that difficult. It should point to other sources that are reputable (or at least relevant) like any search engine does.

  I’m assuming it could easily determine whether something is okay to suggest or not. Dealing with a second degree burn is objectively done a specific way. Advising someone that they are making a good decision by abruptly stopping prescribed medications without doctor supervision can potential lead to death. For instance, I’m on a few medications, one of which is for epileptic seizures. If I phrase my prompt with confidence regarding my decision to abruptly stop taking it, ChatGPT currently pats me on the back for being courageous, etc. In reality, my chances of having a seizure have increased exponentially. I guess what I’m getting at is that I agree with you, it should be able to give hypothetical suggestions and obvious first aid advice, but congratulating or outright suggesting the user to quit meds can lead to actual, real deaths.

  I know 'mixture of experts' is a thing, but I personally would rather have a model more focused on coding or other things that have some degree of formal rigor. If they want a model that does talk therapy, make it a separate model.

  if you stub your toe and gpt suggest over the counter lidocaine and you have an allergic reaction to it, who's responsible? anyway, there's obviously a difference in a model used under professional supervision and one available to general public, and they shouldn't be under the same endpoint, and have different terms of services.

There's an AI model that perfectly encapsulates what you ask for: https://www.goody2.ai/chat https://www.goody2.ai/chat
