A new study has emerged indicating that advice on adolescent nutrition provided by artificial intelligence can be harmful to health. Meal plans generated by various chatbots contain too few calories for growing teenagers.
Redaksiya reports that a new study has revealed that chatbots tasked with creating meal plans for teenagers trying to lose weight are unable to meet their nutritional requirements. This situation can lead to a deficiency in the vitamins and minerals essential for the healthy development of adolescents.
In the study, meal plans for teenagers were created using various artificial intelligence platforms. The results showed that most of these plans fall significantly below the minimum daily calorie intake required by teenagers. This can negatively impact their physical and mental development.
Scientists emphasize that it is still risky to use artificial intelligence in such sensitive matters without human supervision. Specifically, in an important area like adolescent nutrition, it is not recommended to follow advice given by artificial intelligence without the guidance of professional dietitians and doctors.
