Have you been hearing a bit about people using artificial intelligence in their work? It seems like science fiction.Dr. Warrick Bishop, a cardiologist in Hobart, created an AI chatbot for his website that can answer heart health questions based on his knowledge base. The chatbot was created by his business partner and sources information only from Warrick's own knowledge rather than the entire web. The chatbot was able to provide an accurate answer to a question about the benefits of saunas for heart health.Warrick believes AI chatbots like this could be useful for many community groups by providing quick answers to common questions. However, privacy and data security are important concerns when using medical AI tools. Warrick was recently part of a delegation raising awareness about cardiac failure which affects about half a million Australians.

More than 500,000 Australians are currently living with heart failure, with many more potentially undiagnosed. A new Australian-first guide is being launched which aims to raise awareness around the condition. But what is heart failure and what are some of the key signs and symptoms to look out for?

In this blog post, we discuss an exciting development involving the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into a website. Dr Warrick alongside their business partner and associate John, seeks feedback from users to determine the usefulness of AI for their platform. We encourage you to visit the website and engage with the AI algorithm by asking questions related to medical topics. Examples of questions include inquiries about atrial fibrillation, Dr. Bishop's origins, and the importance of blood pressure. The author emphasizes the importance of user feedback in shaping the AI's future development and expresses gratitude for the readers' contributions. The ultimate goal is to explore the potential benefits and drawbacks of AI integration and create a more user-friendly online experience.
