This is just stupid clickbait. Would you use a screwdriver as a hammer? No. Of course not. Anyone with even a little bit of sense understands that GPT is useful for some things and not others. Expecting it to write a cancer treatment plan, it's just outlandish.

Even GPT says:I'm not a substitute for professional medical advice. Creating a cancer treatment plan requires specialized medical knowledge and the input of qualified healthcare professionals. It's important to consult with oncologists and medical experts to develop an appropriate and effective treatment strategy for cancer patients. If you have questions about cancer treatment, I recommend reaching out to a medical professional.

I use this argument all the time for Chat GPT :)

I unfortunately know someone that literally owns every tool he could need. He's so damn impatient that when he needs a tool, whatever is in reach becomes that tool whether it's the tool he needs or not. I do not allow him near my tools
