Robot doctor prescribes medicine

There is a lot of noise around the world that artificial intelligence or artificial intelligence will soon end the jobs of millions of people. The reason is that their jobs will be taken over by robots or machines created with the help of artificial intelligence.

The truth is that this is just an idea that may not materialize. The basis of artificial intelligence is software or computer programs. And so far, scientists have not been able to invent software that can move a finger independently, autonomously… Inventing software that can do even simple tasks autonomously like a human is a far cry.

In fact, scientists have only succeeded in inventing software that finds the desired information in the sea of ​​information or data and brings it to humans.

This software was called “Large language model”. And based on this, OpenAI, Google, Microsoft and other Western companies have created programs (ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Google Gemini, etc.) that fill the treasure trove of information as much as possible and which are streaming on the internet. When a question is asked to the program, it uses its artificial intelligence to search the available information and give the desired answer.

This means that these seemingly menacing artificial intelligence software, or robotic machines as they are commonly known, actually require humans. If humans do not provide them with information, then they will remain just a collection of wires and small instruments, lifeless and devoid of all feelings and emotions! But the more information the human provides to the software, the better the answer will be.

As if the utility of these softwares is that they can help a person to reach a conclusion and get out of a problem. And they were created to help humans in their daily life and to save them from sufferings and difficulties. Experts from the famous Oxford University of Great Britain have invented another such software which has been named “DrugGPT”. It will also perform its work on the Internet. Its beta or experimental model is working.

DrugGTP is designed to help doctors. When they tell him about a disease, DrugGTP will bring up all the latest information about that disease. For example, why disease occurs. What are its symptoms? How is treatment possible? And above all, this software will prescribe medicines that can cure the disease. He will also explain what are the disadvantages of using such and such medicine and what adverse reactions can occur if such and such medicine is taken together. This is the main purpose for which DrugGTP was created.

In fact, doctors around the world sometimes make a mistake while prescribing medicine for a disease. Because of this, not only the patients have to bear financial loss, but sometimes the patient also loses his life. It is as if prescribing the wrong medicine has become a serious and dangerous problem.

For example, in the UK alone, according to the British Medical Journal, doctors make “237 million” (twenty-seven million) prescription errors each year, costing patients “98 million pounds” ( There is a financial loss of about thirty five billion rupees. And above all, “seventeen hundred patients” die by taking the wrong medicine. If the whole world is calculated, the financial loss is in trillions of rupees and the loss of human lives is much higher.

DrugGTP was created to help doctors diagnose and prescribe medication. The software was created by a team working under the guidance of Dr. Professor David Clinton at Oxford’s AI Laboratory for Healthcare. According to Dr. Clinton, “This software is also important because it tells physicians why it is important to use such and such drugs in treatment.”

The invention of Drug GTP will give doctors around the world the opportunity to get a second opinion during treatment. This will make it easier for them to treat patients. DrugGTP is designed solely to assist clinicians in selecting the correct drug. So ChatGTP, Microsoft Copilot, Google Gemini etc. which make common and childish mistakes during search, DrugGTP is free from them. Still, doctors are advised to use this software with care and not blindly follow its recommendations.

Medicines play a fundamental role in treating a patient. With their help, the patient gets rid of his disease. Therefore, choosing the right medicine is a condition for getting well. Given the importance of this process, experts invented the drug GTP. It is hoped that with the help of this software, doctors will overcome errors in diagnosis and prescription.

But general people should be careful not to use this software by themselves as it is only designed to help doctors. The information and answers given by Drug GTP will be best understood by the doctor. If a non-medical person tries to treat his disease through this software, even a small mistake can lead him to the grave. So one would refrain from adventuring with this software.

Some doctors in the world take help from Chat GPT or Google Gemini during treatment. However, medical associations have issued instructions not to seek help from them as they make a lot of mistakes. But DrugGTP’s inventor, Professor Watson, says: “It’s very sophisticated and informed software. All medical information has been fed into it and new ones are constantly being added. It will easily pass the doctor’s exam in America.
