Albanian Doctors Frustrated as Patients Trust ChatGPT Diagnoses

Doctors in Albania are pushing back against a growing habit among patients of turning to ChatGPT for medical diagnoses and then challenging or second-guessing their physicians. Medical professionals say the trend undermines trust in clinical expertise and reflects frustration with AI tools being treated as a substitute for doctors, particularly in a health system already under strain.
Why now: AI chatbots are increasingly used by patients for health advice, prompting conflict with doctors, and a new report on Albania has drawn attention to the problem.
