Mother claims Elon Musk’s AI detected daughter’s fracture that doctors missed: ‘This was eye-opening for me’ | Trending

In a remarkable turn of events, a mother has claimed that Elon Musk’s AI chatbot, Grok, detected her daughter’s fracture after medical professionals failed to diagnose it. The incident, shared on X (formerly known as Twitter), has sparked widespread debate over the role of AI in healthcare. A mother reported that Elon Musk’s AI, Grok, identified her daughter’s fracture, which had been overlooked doctors.(X/@AJKayWriter) (Also read: Man uses AI to apply for 1,000 jobs in sleep, lands 50 interview calls in a month) AJ Kay, the mother in question, detailed her experience in a post that has now garnered over 8 million views. She explained that her daughter was involved in a severe car accident, leaving her with significant arm pain. Despite visiting urgent care and undergoing X-rays, both the attending doctor and radiolog declared her arm free of fractures. However, Kay remained unconvinced due to her daughter’s worsening symptoms, including a cold and tingly hand and immobility in her thumb. Taking matters into AI’s handsDetermined to find answers, Kay turned to Grok, the AI chatbot recently launched Musk’s platform. She uploaded the X-rays to the AI and posed a series of questions. Grok’s response was unequivocal: “There’s a clear fracture line in the dal radius.” Despite assurances from the urgent care team that the line was merely her daughter’s growth plate, Grok insed it was a fracture. Armed with this new perspective, Kay sought further medical attention. A wr special confirmed Grok’s diagnosis—a dal radial head fracture with dorsal displacement. The special warned that without timely treatment, her daughter might have required surgery, a scenario now likely avoided thanks to the intervention.
