OpenAI Clarifies ChatGPT Policy on Tailored Legal and Medical Advice
OpenAI reaffirms ChatGPT offers general legal and medical information but prohibits tailored advice without licensed professional review to limit liability.
- On October 29th, OpenAI updated usage policies to bar provision of tailored legal or medical advice without licensed professional involvement, emphasizing human review for high-stakes decisions.
- Growing use of ChatGPT for health questions meant about 1 in 6 people rely on it monthly, with some harms reported including a psychiatric case in the Annals of Internal Medicine.
- In practice ChatGPT cannot diagnose users or provide in-depth personalized medical advice; it suggested general remedies for a head cold and urged calling 911 for facial immobility.
- The policy change could constrain OpenAI's healthcare push since ChatGPT cannot replace clinicians for serious conditions requiring professional judgment.
