OpenAI adds ChatGPT Health for medical questions

OpenAI is expanding its capabilities by adding a dedicated health tab to ChatGPT, allowing people to bring in electronic medical records and other data from apps like Apple Health and MyFitnessPal. Seeking answers for health-related queries is already a top use of ChatGPT, with more than 40 million people using it daily for medical and health insurance questions. Even before the introduction of the dedicated tab, people have been flocking to ChatGPT to make sense of lab tests, navigate health insurance claims, and figure out what is causing various symptoms. The new feature, dubbed ChatGPT Health, aims to expand on what's already being done in chats by allowing users to connect to other apps and data sources. OpenAI says that information shared in the health tab won't be used in other types of chats and that people can easily view and delete their health-related "memories." A small group will test the feature first. Those interested in access to the health features can sign up for a waitlist, while OpenAI says it plans to make the health tab available to all users on the web and iOS in the coming weeks.
