What happens when a patient decides an AI chatbot is more "humane" than their doctor? A powerful essay in The Guardian and Rest of World explores one mother's growing reliance on 'Dr. DeepSeek', an AI that is both a comforting, empathetic companion and a source of dangerous medical misinformation.In this episode, we dissect the story's key themes: the "push" from an overburdened healthcare system, the "pull" of AI's infinite patience, and the peril of confident inaccuracy.
