DRUGGPT: NEW AI TOOL COULD HELP DOCTORS PRESCRIBE MEDICINE IN ENGLAND
Oxford University researchers developed DrugGPT which offers a safety net for clinicians when they prescribe medicines and gives them information that may help their patients better understand why and how to take them.

"The new technology is intended to help prevent people with type 1 diabetes experiencing life-threatening low or high blood glucose levels, which can lead to unconsciousness and can even be fatal.
