Here's a list of 10 things you should stop using ChatGPT for right now! – The Hans India

ChatGPT is fast becoming a daily assistant for millions — whether it’s writing emails, solving problems, planning trips, or helping with code. It’s accessible, responsive, and incredibly versatile. But with convenience comes a hidden danger: overreliance.
While the AI tool is great for general knowledge, productivity, and learning, there are areas where trusting ChatGPT could put you in real danger. Here’s a list of 10 things you should stop using ChatGPT for right now:
1. Diagnosing health issues
ChatGPT isn’t a doctor. It can’t examine you, run tests, or detect symptoms accurately. Using it for self-diagnosis can lead to anxiety or delay in getting proper care.
2. Managing mental health
Feeling low or anxious? AI might offer calming suggestions, but it can’t understand emotions like a trained therapist. Real conversations with professionals matter.
3. Making emergency decisions
In situations like gas leaks, fire, or medical crises, don’t rely on ChatGPT. It can’t sense real-time danger or call emergency services. Prioritize human action.
4. Handling finances or taxes
While it can explain terms, ChatGPT lacks context about your personal finances. Its advice may be inaccurate, outdated, or lead to financial mistakes. Consult a real expert.
5. Sharing personal or confidential data
Never feed legal, medical, or ID documents into ChatGPT. Sensitive data might be stored, reviewed, or used for future training. Keep your private information private.
6. Doing anything illegal
Trying to get around rules or laws using ChatGPT is not only unethical but could also be traced back to you — and bring legal trouble.
7. Checking real-time news or updates
ChatGPT doesn’t update itself constantly. For live news, stocks, or emergency alerts, turn to verified sources, not AI summaries.
8. Gambling advice
Relying on ChatGPT for bets or predictions is risky. It can’t foresee future outcomes and could lead to poor financial decisions.
9. Writing legal documents
It can help explain legal language, but using ChatGPT to draft contracts or wills can be risky. Laws vary widely, and mistakes can invalidate your documents.
10. Creating original art or claiming AI content as your own
AI can generate ideas, but presenting its work as human-made is misleading. Respect real artists and creatives by being transparent about what’s AI-generated.
Bottom line:
Use ChatGPT as a helpful tool — not a replacement for professional, real-world guidance. Know where to draw the line and stay safe in the age of AI.
