Description
Why do so many people use AI tools like ChatGPT and Google Gemini—but still hesitate to trust them with health advice? In this episode, we explore a recent national survey from KFF and JAMA that uncovers the surprising disconnect between how often we use AI and how little we trust it in matters of health.
Topics Covered:
Why only 5% of users are "very confident" in AI health advice
How age influences both AI use and skepticism
The role of familiarity bias and the need for empathy in healthcare
Why data transparency and accountability are essential for trust
What needs to change—education, regulation, and system design—for AI to earn our confidence
