When healthcare can ruin you financially for even small issues, of course you’re going to look for help from any free source you can.

Of course googles ai will prefer googles products for answers
Of course Microsoft’s ai will tell you ms has the best products
Of course groks gonna act like someone on Twitter
This is one of the biggest issue with ai. It’s a tool for marketing. It’s a tool for manipulation. If you don’t have the code or the training data, you do not know why it’s telling you what it is telling you.
Even the “FOSS” ones seem suspect to me
