More people are turning to AI chatbots with health questions, and they're getting quick, confident answers. But how much should you actually trust what AI tells you? In this episode, we hear from two doctors about whether AI can really help patients become more informed, and when you definitely still need a human doctor.  You'll hear from both Dr. Matthew Callstrom from Mayo Clinic and Dr. Celine Gounder from CBS News and KFF Health News.   Learn more about our guest(s): https://www.theNewsWorthy.com/shownotes Join us again for our 15-minute daily news roundups every Mon-Fri!  Become an INSIDER and get ad-free episodes here: https://www.theNewsWorthy.com/insider Get The NewsWorthy MERCH here: https://www.theNewsWorthy.com/merch Sponsors: For a limited time, get 60% off your first order, plus free shipping and free treats for life, when you head to Smalls.com/NEWSWORTHY.
