Revolutionary

I have not been quick to jump on the bandwagon of AI primarily because I do not use it to write papers or articles or for work

But after using this app, a number of times I have been converted!

There are so many questions that I have that I want to ask that are hard to put into words. It's hard to find how to phrase the question to get the answer.


Often I want to ask why something works when all the evidence says it shouldn't, or whether a product that is used all the time really does what it says it does. Or why Physicians keep using something if it can't be shown to work. Or why when all of our medical knowledge says something should work one way it actually works the other way.

Open evidence easily feels those questions and provides multiple answers from different angles completely Answering exactly what I was concerned about

in the past searching Google or another search engine was inadequate for the detail I needed or just missed the point of the question it would bring up common explanations or just List, which I already knew. I wanted the complexity of the "why" or better yet why things weren't as they seemed or should be

With open evidence I can ask the question in the words that I'm comfortable with and OE "gets it" and provides an incredibly thorough answer, taking in all the subtleties as if it read my mind

it's as if I'm talking to a genius professor who has a complete knowledge of all areas of Medicine, surgery, etc. And the ability to understand what the student is asking and explain it in terms he or she understands.

Thank you for creating this

Amazing resource

If looking to provide best evidence for your patients’s care and for a safer professional practice, this tool is an amazing resource

Espetacular

APP espetacular. Rápido, preciso e baseado em referências bibliográficas importantes.

Phenomenal tool that’s rapidly being diluted

Core LLM model is fantastic. The App though is continuously adding bloat (ie. Games, Dialer, Fax, Inbox), it’s practically Doximity at this point.

By all means develop these features, but there’s no reason my research app should have Games and a Dialer — spin this off in a new app. Dialer, Visits, Scribe, Messages, Inbox all make sense in their own app separated from Discover/Articles/News and Ask.

UpToDate doesn’t have all this junk lumped in. The App is getting larger and slower, it’s forgetting why it exists. Sad to see the development team is going down this route.
