Think Twice! 7 ChatGPT Uses That Can Go Really Wrong

Handling Private Data: Avoid entering personal or sensitive info — you can’t fully control where it ends up.

Tax or Money Advice: It can explain financial terms but won’t know your situation or stay updated on new laws.

Medical Diagnosis: ChatGPT can’t examine you or order tests — only a real doctor can do that safely.

Therapy Support: AI can sound empathetic, but it doesn’t replace a licensed therapist with real emotional insight.

Emergency Help: In a crisis like gas leaks or fires, don’t chat — call emergency services immediately.

School Cheating: Using AI to do your assignments risks failing, suspension, and learning nothing in the process.

Drafting Legal Papers: ChatGPT can explain legal terms but can’t ensure your will or contract is legally valid.
