Pretty damn stupid. She wasn’t aware of the medical consensus that raw milk has no proven nutritional benefits compared with its pasteurized counterpart, or that it carries over 100 times the risk of foodborne illness. “I’m the one that gave it to her,” she thought. “Just how stupid could I be?”

If I was a doctor with  a private practice, I would offer to sit with the patient and configure their Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini and Grok with instructions and skills, along with a series of prompts/tasks that the patient can use and that can be shared with the doctor and inform the patient. 

LLM , every day at 5pm I want you to ask Joe the following questions , and show him your response.  Upon completion , I want you to email me everything in this chat 

Every morning I want you to look for new questions I emailed joe that will come from my email with the subject Questions

Rinse and repeat. 

You get the point.  

Help the patient use AI to help you help the patient.

to me

Thank you for reaching out to my office and sharing your thoughts. Your feedback is invaluable as we work together to address the issues that matter most to Ohio. We meet with constituents every day in Washington, D.C., and it is the best part of my day.

I ran for office because I was tired of career politicians that cared only about getting reelected. I understand I work for you. It is one of the greatest honors of my life to represent Ohio and I work very hard every day to do the best job I possibly can.

I am committed to listening to your concerns and ensuring that your voice is heard in Washington. Every message I receive helps me better understand the needs and priorities of our constituents. We may not always agree, but I want you to know that I respect your passion, your point of view, and your desire to make our great country even better.

If you have an urgent issue to address with a federal agency, please reach out to my casework team at casework@moreno.senate.gov. You won’t find a more dedicated group to help you with anything from the Department of Veterans Affairs to the Social Security Administration to the Passport Agency.

Again, thank you for your feedback.

Sincerely,

Bernie Moreno
United States Senator
