    Your doctor's AI notetaker may be making things up, Ontario audit
    finds

    Made-up therapy referrals, incorrect prescriptions among the common
    mistakes.

    In recent years, many overworked doctors have turned to so-called AI
    medical scribes to help automatically summarize patient conversations, diagnoses, and care decisions into structured notes for health record
    logging. But a recent audit by the auditor general of Ontario found
    that AI scribes recommended by the provincial government regularly
    generated incorrect, incomplete and hallucinated information that
    could "potentially result in inadequate or harmful treatment plans
    that may potentially impact patient health outcomes."
