Artificial Intelligence Chatbots and Narcolepsy: Friend or Foe for Patient Information?
Our findings highlight the potential of AI chatbots to deliver mostly accurate responses to narcolepsy-related queries. However, these tools have limitations, including text accessibility, as the readability of the responses did not align with the recommended standards for health information. Therefore, their use should be integrated with appropriate guidance from healthcare professionals to avoid potential misunderstandings.
