OpenAI ChatGPT Health: New Healthcare Feature

OpenAI launched ChatGPT Health to analyze medical records and prep for doctor visits.

200 million people already ask ChatGPT health questions weekly.

AI healthcare tools formalize what users already do without permission.

Your business needs to recognize that product launches often legitimize existing unauthorized usage. When OpenAI builds ChatGPT Health after 200 million weekly health queries, they're monetizing behavior that already exists rather than creating new demand.

The feature analyzes records and prepares visit questions without making formal diagnoses. It connects to Apple Health and similar apps. The waitlist indicates controlled rollout before general availability.

-) 200 million weekly health queries currently
-) No formal diagnosis capability
-) Integration with existing health apps

People already asked ChatGPT medical questions despite warnings against it. OpenAI watched the usage data and built a product around observed behavior. The liability disclaimers protect the company while serving existing demand.

Track how customers already misuse your products before competitors build proper solutions. Monitor unauthorized usage patterns that indicate unmet needs. Decide whether formalizing existing behavior creates opportunity or liability.

Are you building features around how customers actually use your product or how you think they should use it?
