Is ChatGPT Health actually safe to use?

Skip expensive doctor visits with AI health consultations
Hey AI Enthusiast,
OpenAI just launched ChatGPT Health.
A dedicated space for health conversations. Separate from your regular chats.
Over 230 million people ask ChatGPT health questions every week. Now those conversations are siloed so your health context doesn't leak into other chats.
It integrates with Apple Health, Function, and MyFitnessPal. OpenAI says they won't use Health conversations to train models.
Rolling out in the coming weeks.
But here's the thing: AI giving medical advice creates serious challenges. LLMs predict likely responses, not correct ones. They hallucinate. OpenAI's own terms say it's "not intended for diagnosis or treatment."
The irony? Most people aren't even using AI's memory features properly yet.
But first, today's prompt (then how to actually use AI memory the right way...)

Stop Wasting Time Re-Explaining Everything to AI
Most people treat every AI chat like starting from scratch.
They re-explain their role. Their industry. Their preferences. Their brand voice. Every single time.
This is a massive waste of time.
ChatGPT and Claude both have memory features now. They remember context across conversations.
But most users don't take advantage of it.
How AI Memory Actually Works
When you tell ChatGPT or Claude something about yourself, it can remember it for future conversations.
Your role. Your industry. Your communication style. Your common projects. Your brand guidelines.
You set it up once. Then every conversation starts with that context already loaded.
Instead of: "I'm a marketing consultant who works with B2B SaaS companies..."
You just start: "Help me with a campaign for this client."
The AI already knows who you are and how you work.
What to Tell Your AI Once
Set this up in your first conversation or in the memory settings:
Your role and industry: "I'm a content strategist for e-commerce brands."
Your communication preferences: "Keep responses under 200 words. No fluff. Direct answers only."
Your brand voice: "Our brand voice is conversational, confident, and no-nonsense. We avoid corporate jargon and motivational clichés."
Common project details: "We typically work on 90-day content campaigns with weekly publishing schedules."
Your tools and platforms: "We use Shopify, Klaviyo, and Instagram for most client work."
This takes five minutes to set up. Then it saves you hours over the next month.
Reference Past Conversations
Once memory is enabled, you can reference previous chats without re-explaining.
Instead of: "Remember that campaign we discussed where we focused on email segmentation..."
You just say: "Update the email campaign we built last week with these new segments."
The AI recalls the context. You skip the setup.
Update Memory When Things Change
Your needs evolve. Your preferences shift. Your focus changes.
Tell the AI when something updates.
"I'm no longer working with B2B SaaS. I've shifted to DTC e-commerce brands. Update your memory."
"Our brand voice changed. We're now more playful and less formal."
The AI adapts. Your context stays current.
Keep Building Over Time
The longer you use the same AI with memory enabled, the better it gets at understanding you.
It learns your patterns. Your preferences. Your common requests.
This is how you build a personalized AI assistant, not just a chatbot you query occasionally.
The Productivity Multiplier
Most people spend 30-40% of their AI conversations just setting context.
"I'm working on X. Here's the background. Here are my constraints. Here's what I need."
With memory enabled, that drops to near zero.
You start every conversation already in context. The AI knows what you're working on, how you like to work, and what matters to you.
That's the difference between using AI as a tool and using it as an assistant.
How to Enable It
ChatGPT: Go to Settings → Personalization → Memory. Turn it on.
Claude: Memory is automatically enabled. You can manage it in your account settings.
Start your next conversation by telling the AI: "Remember these details about me and my work..."
Then watch how much faster your conversations become.

OpenAI Launches ChatGPT Health
OpenAI announced ChatGPT Health yesterday.
It's a dedicated space inside ChatGPT specifically for health and wellness conversations.
Why They Built It
Over 230 million people ask ChatGPT health questions every week.
That's a massive number. And it's been happening in regular chats mixed with everything else.
ChatGPT Health silos these conversations away from your other chats. Your health context won't leak into standard conversations.
If you start a health conversation outside the Health section, the AI nudges you to switch over.
How It Works
Within the Health section, the AI can still reference things from your standard ChatGPT experience.
Example: You ask ChatGPT for help building a marathon training plan. Later, in the Health section, you discuss fitness goals. The AI knows you're a runner.
But the reverse doesn't happen. Your health conversations stay in Health.
Integrations
ChatGPT Health integrates with:
Apple Health
Function
MyFitnessPal
You can connect your personal health data and medical records from these apps.
OpenAI promises they won't use Health conversations to train their models. Health data stays private.
The Pitch
Fidji Simo, CEO of Applications at OpenAI, framed this as a response to healthcare problems:
Cost and access barriers
Overbooked doctors
Lack of continuity in care
The idea: ChatGPT Health provides accessible health information when you can't immediately reach a doctor.
The Problem
Here's where this gets tricky.
Large language models predict the most likely response to prompts. Not the most correct answer.
LLMs don't have a concept of what is true or false. They generate text based on patterns in their training data.
They also hallucinate. Sometimes they confidently state things that are completely wrong.
This is particularly dangerous with health information.
OpenAI's Own Disclaimer
In OpenAI's terms of service, they state ChatGPT is "not intended for use in the diagnosis or treatment of any health condition."
So they're launching a product specifically for health conversations while legally disclaiming that it shouldn't be used for diagnosis or treatment.
That's... a contradiction.
What This Actually Is
ChatGPT Health is useful for general health research and understanding.
"What are the symptoms of X?" "How does Y medication work?" "What questions should I ask my doctor about Z?"
It's not a replacement for medical advice. It's a starting point for research.
The danger is that people will treat it as medical advice anyway.
The Rollout
ChatGPT Health is expected to roll out in the coming weeks.
Available to ChatGPT Plus and Team subscribers first. Then potentially to free users later.
What This Means
This is OpenAI pushing into a new vertical. Health is massive. If they can own even a fraction of health-related AI queries, that's significant revenue and retention.
But it's also risky. One major hallucination leading to harm, and the backlash will be severe.
The integrations with Apple Health and other apps suggest this could expand into more proactive health monitoring and recommendations.
That's powerful if done right. Dangerous if done poorly.
For now, it's a siloed chat experience with health app integrations. But the roadmap is clearly bigger than that.
