Overview
- Le Parisien publishes the first episode of a series documenting how ChatGPT has moved from novelty to routine helper in France since late 2022.
- A Paris-based user recounts using the AI at night for his wife's mild symptoms, receiving step-by-step prompts and reminders to call emergency number 15 if her condition worsened.
- The same user says he now turns to the tool for minor health concerns such as a skin issue, citing difficulty securing a dermatology appointment.
- Beyond health questions, testimonies describe everyday uses that include vacation planning, administrative queries and relationship advice.
- The report presents anecdotal user experiences rather than systematic data and signals a broader examination of AI's social effects to come.
