Summary
Section titled “Summary”A survey by the Oncoguia Institute found that eight out of 10 cancer patients had used artificial intelligence, mainly to understand cancer, test results, treatments, and side effects. The institute’s president says AI provides accessible information when questions arise at home, but stresses that it is only a tool and can give confident but incorrect answers. Patients are advised not to change treatment based on AI, to check its sources and whether information is current, and to use it to prepare for medical appointments. The segment points viewers to a G1 report and an Oncoguia guide.

Section titled “Full transcript (original language)”00:00 Speaking of health, did you know that AI, artificial intelligence, has been widely used by cancer patients? Yes, and that’s what we’re going to talk about now on Bem-Estar. Good morning. >> Good morning, Doctor. Telminha. Come here, partner. A survey conducted by the Oncoguia Institute showed that eight out of 10 patients have used AI. So I ask you, in what way did they use this technology? Well, Pat, it’s mostly to clear up questions about cancer itself or to better understand treatment. And the majority of those
00:35 interviewed stated that artificial intelligence helped mainly in understanding test results and also side effects. So, we spoke with the president of Oncoguia, who commented on the benefits and risks of AI use by oncology patients. Let’s see. Look, the survey shows us that patients are seeking to better understand cancer, exams, treatments, and side effects. There is a need for clear, accessible information, available the moment a
01:09 question arises. The question arises when the patient is at home. So, it’s clear here that AI is filling a space that the healthcare system is often unable to fill. So, what stands out most is realizing that AI, artificial intelligence, is already part of the journey of many patients. We aren’t talking about a technology of the future; people are using AI to clear up questions about their own health. I think the central point here today is
01:44 to prepare people so they don’t forget that AI is just a tool, and it can be used, must be used, very safely. AI can make mistakes, and it often answers with great conviction. And when we are talking about treatment for a disease as complex as cancer, wrong information can generate fear, false expectations, and even dangerous decisions about treatment. And to prevent that from
02:18 happening, the institute, from what I understood, published a guide for patients, right? Exactly. And we have set aside three important tips here. So , never change your treatment, folks, based on what the AI says. Talk to your medical team first. Also, check the sources and verify if the AI’s information is up to date, because the tool can bring up old or even incorrect data. And use artificial intelligence to prepare yourself and arrive more informed for your appointment. In other words, AI can help a lot, but it must
02:54 be used responsibly. And with the QR code appearing here on the screen, you can read the G1 report and download the Oncoguia guide. >> Very interesting. Thank you, Doctor. Little team. >> Kisses, partner. See you tomorrow. See you tomorrow. Ah.
