Why is everything in this space about disruption?

Doctors use the Internet all the time. One of my kids is a resident in internal medicine and uses it regularly to find information. Example: videos of medical procedures.

ChatGPT and LLMs in general look like a great extension to existing search. But it still needs somebody to keep an eye on it to ensure it's not confidently spouting bullshit. This looks like something that needs to be carefully controlled (read: regulated) if you want to avoid very serious consequences for unlucky patients.
