The big idea
Some apps and websites use AI to answer simple health questions, like 'What is a cold?' But AI is NOT a doctor. If you feel really sick or hurt, always tell a grown-up first. They'll decide if you need to see a real doctor.
Some examples
- AI can explain what 'fever' means.
- AI can NOT tell you which medicine to take.
- AI can suggest, 'You should ask a doctor about this.'
- AI can NOT replace your real doctor — ever.
Try it!
Ask a grown-up: 'Who do we call if I get really sick?' Knowing the answer ahead of time is super smart.
