An Illinois-based nurse says the hospital floor she works on looks nothing like it did even a year ago, and the difference comes down to a chatbot. In a video gaining traction online, TikTok user @Chenedyy lays out three separate moments that convinced her AI has fully arrived in clinical medicine.
“AI is officially in healthcare. It’s officially in the hospitals,” she says in the video, adding that new doctors and nurses are about to become “the most reliant clinicians on AI that the world has ever seen before.”
According to the nurse, artificial intelligence is now built directly into the electronic health record system she charts on daily. “It can summarize any notes. It can create notes. It can do deep dives for you,” she says, explaining that the tool is capable of pulling together longer patient histories on request. She adds that the feature is new on the nursing side specifically: “I don’t have that charting, but on the nurse’s side, this is the first time I’ve seen this.”
She also describes a recent visit with a new primary care provider, who asked permission to record their appointment so AI could transcribe it into her chart. “She asked me… if she could record our session using AI to get it transcribed in the chart,” the nurse recalls, saying she agreed rather than disrupt the visit: “I’m not trying to *expletive* up the workflow here.”
In a third example from her time as an Illinois rapid response nurse, she recalls a physician using Google’s AI summary to confirm that prednisone can cause hypotension, essentially Googling a clinical fact and treating the result as validation, which the nurse called “confirmation bias.”
In a separate incident, another nurse ran a patient-care question past her, then compared her answer to a chatbot’s. “Wow, that’s what Chat said too,” he told her. When she asked why he was using AI for nursing questions instead of “ask[ing] someone,” he replied, “I use Chat for everything.”
Internet Reacts to Illinois Nurse’s AI Healthcare Claims
The comments underneath the video leaned skeptical, and in some cases alarmed. One commenter wrote, “This is gonna be used to deny people health insurance I can just see it,” while another called AI in medicine “a public health crisis” outright.
Others pushed back on how reliable the technology actually is, with one person writing, “AI is just not as sophisticated as people think it is.” A few reactions leaned toward dark humor, including “We’re gonna die” and “As wrong as AI is, this is scary,” while one commenter asked, half-jokingly, “So ATP I should just Google my symptoms?”
The video is gaining attention because it captures something many patients haven’t clocked yet: AI is no longer confined to research settings or optional pilot programs; it’s already routed through daily hospital workflows.
