AI: Friend or Foe in Health Info? Mastery Newsletter September 17, 2026
Artificial Intelligence (AI): Can it be trusted for health information?
A Big Caution.
A double-edged sword it is.
Dr Robert Malone, who you may have seen vilified as a conspiracy theorist, found one AI that did NOT paint him as a monster.
Most sites (Wikipedia, etc.) say he is spreading misinformation.
Background: He did foundational research into what became the MRNA technology: the MRNA “vaccine.”
He then realized some of the downsides of that shot and started speaking out about it.
That is when most sources took an “attack” stance against him.
Note Wikipedia entry: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_W._Malone
Then…
He found an AI that gave a balanced view of his story.
So, he started asking it health questions and found it to be a good source of unbiased info.
I then started using it as well and have found it useful for health topics and info…
My friend PR suggested we test it out by asking it what it thought about COVID. Lo and behold, it was not the mainstream answer.
Instead it gave both sides of the story.
Since then, some months ago, I have used it successfully for a range of health questions.
For those who may not know:
AI is NOT intelligence at all. It is better termed as “machine learning.”
That said, what it does do depends on where each particular AI machine is pointed. Where it is trained to find info.
Many AI’s (Chat GPT, Grok, etc.) have been pointed into areas that support the mainstream narrative.
What that means is you will get the answer a doctor would be trained to give you.
Very little support for herbs, nutrition, supplements nor “alternative” practices such as tai chi, yoga, etc.
Alter AI is the name and it gives information from both the medical model as well as so called “alternative” sources.
“Alternative” is a relative term. It includes info from the traditional practices of Chinese, Indian, Tibetan and even North American native traditions.
All thousands of years old.
So it could be said our modern, pharmaceutical based 200-year-old medicine is the real “alternative” medicine.
Before I give you the website, a BIG CAUTION.
Over the last few months I have used this AI, I found lots of highly useful info for my health situation…
BUT…
And this is a BIG BUT…
I had to challenge it on quite a few answers and…
It apologized each time and told me I was right to challenge it and CHANGED ITS TUNE!
If I did not have decades of health study behind me, I may not have noticed some of the inconsistencies.
(I have been studying health, on and off, since the early 60s and have big shelf of health books.)
Mark Twain’s caution may apply:
“Be careful of health books. You may die of a misprint.”
So…proceed with caution.
Here is the site and it gives you a handful of free answers per day.
(You might be able to increase that by using different browsers.)
Proceed with caution.
Use it for info.
Check with your health supplier.
Do your own study.
Use your intuition.
Much good fortune.
In Joy and Love
