Recently, there has been an increase in patients who describe their symptoms exactly as they are written in medical textbooks. This is due to excessive use of the internet. For example, they ask artificial intelligence: “What are the symptoms of neurosis or depression?” Naturally, it gathers information and presents the symptoms just like in medical literature.

As a result, patients may misinterpret this information and mistake simple apathy for depression, leading them to self-diagnose incorrectly. This can cause unnecessary anxiety and worsen their condition.

In general, artificial intelligence can be used for obtaining useful information. However, it should not be used for medical advice. It is better to consult a doctor.
