It’s totally not impossible, just not a good idea in a vaccuum.

AI is your Aunt Marge. She’s heard a LOT of scuttlebut. Now, not all scuttlebut is fake news, in fact most of it is rooted at least loosely in truth. But she’s not taking the information from just the doctors, she’s talking to everyone. If you ask Aunt Marge about your symptoms, and she happes to have heard a bit about it from her friend that was diagnosed, you’re gold and the info you got is great. This is not at all impossible. 40:60 or 60:40 territory. But, you also can’t just trust Marge, because she listens to a LOT of people, and some of those are conspiracy theorists.

What you did is proper. You asked the void, the void answered. You looked it up, it seemed solid, you asked a professional.

This is AI as it should be. Trust with verification only.

congrats on getting diagnosed.
