This has led to the rapid development of so-called rapid tests and point-of-care tests, enabling users to self-diagnose certain conditions. At the same time, artificial intelligence has advanced quickly — initially focusing on complex language models, and more recently on AI-based web tools and chatbots designed to support users in healthcare. The proposed activity consists of two components: interacting with a chatbot and trying out selected rapid self-tests.
