From unable to run a mile to a 5K, with ChatGPT as a health coach

angel, who works in applied AI at OpenAI, uses ChatGPT to stay science-based about care for a chronic illness, and for workout plans, injury recovery, macros and weighing research. Asthma meant no mile in high school; now 5Ks are no problem.

one of the best ways AI has impacted my personal life is helping me become a healthier version of myself.

chatgpt has helped me be more informed and science-based when it comes to my medical care, which has been a game changer living with chronic illness.

but it’s also helped me get into the best shape of my life! workout plans, working through injuries, finding peer-reviewed research to help weigh the pros and cons of different approaches, estimating macros, figuring out what works for my body and my lifestyle. i’m not athletic at all and couldn’t even run a mile in high school due to my asthma - now i can run a 5K with no problem and i love hitting PRs (still very uncoordinated though).

for all the big, futuristic possibilities we talk about with AI, this is probably the way it’s impacted by personal life the most.
