00:00Trying to lose weight? AI might tell you how, but you shouldn't always trust it.
00:04Here's what to watch out for.
00:06Turkish scientists have asked five AI chatbots to create three-day diet plans for different overweight and obese adolescents.
00:13These were compared to plans by human dieticians.
00:17The results? That AI chatbots underestimated the amount of energy intake by up to 700 calories, a full meal.
00:24This can have negative consequences on growth and brain development.
00:27Also, the amount of recommended carbohydrates was too low and the amount of protein was too high.
00:33This can also affect the health of teenagers negatively.
00:36For many, chatbots are more accessible than human nutrition experts and they can help with basic questions about how to
00:43eat healthier.
00:44But you shouldn't blindly trust them.
00:46Turn to professionals to create adequate meal plans, especially if you have health problems.
