๐ค The Activity
๐งฉ The Twist
Fact-check both. Both are true.
Medical AI makes mistakes with serious consequences. AI diagnostic tools are decision-support systems โ they give doctors more information, they do not make diagnoses. A doctor always verifies. Never use a health app as a substitute for medical advice.

Parent Notes
โผMedical AI literacy โ understanding AI in high-stakes contexts.

Medical topics can cause health anxiety in some children. Keep it scientifically curious, not alarming.
Always end with: AI is a tool that helps doctors โ it never replaces them. For any real health concern, talk to a real doctor.
