Alright, Calgary, grab your coffee, because this one? This is a chinook of a story – totally throws you off, makes you question everything you thought you knew, and leaves you wondering what just hit you. You know those days in January when it’s plus-10 and you think spring is here, then February rolls in and slaps you with minus-30? Yeah, this is that kind of story.
So, get this: medical chatbots, you know, those AI things people are turning to for quick answers, are apparently out here telling folks to try 'rectal garlic insertion for immune support.' Rectal. Garlic. Insertion. For real though, experts are saying these bots are getting swayed by misinformation that's dressed up in fancy medical terms, and then they just confidently spew out advice that could be downright dangerous. I mean, my grandma used to put Vicks VapoRub on everything, but even she'd probably draw the line at *that*.
Can you imagine trying to find a naturopath in Bridgeland who'd actually recommend that? They’d probably look at you like you just suggested putting ketchup on a steak. This is Calgary – we’ve seen the boom, we’ve seen the bust, and we showed up anyway. But even we've got some lines we don't cross, and I think 'rectal garlic' is definitely one of 'em. I'm Cassidy Redcloud, and that's the Morning Wire.
