I’m really over glitchy AI search
Setting the stage I had a doctor’s appointment and the subject of a hep b vaccine came up and I said I had had it. My records didn’t indicate this, I couldn’t remember why I had had it, and it had been over ten years ago. I was getting blood tested anyway so to make sure I had it we did a test on the antibody and something else that is done with the antibody test.
I got the results back which indicated I indeed had the antibodies to it (I remember getting it, just not where,) and I wondered what this second test that was part of it was and googled it.
I wish I had taken screenshots of my AI assisted search, I really do. Because what I read indicated that I had an active hep b infection. The only way that would have been possible were if I had received blood during my operation tainted with it, but still it was concerning and I wrote my PCP about it.
Shortly after I wrote the doctor I did another search and AI popped in again and indicated test result meant there was no infection. Multiple searches ignoring the helpful AI indicated that was the case as well.
It felt like WebMD was in control for a bit… today asking the same questions I did yesterday is yielding nothing.
