AI transparency
Why Sift uses AI, where it can fail, and what users should do.
Why Sift may use AI
Sift may use AI to explain terminology, organize events, surface possible relationships, and help people prepare questions. These uses support understanding; they do not establish clinical truth.
What AI cannot do
AI can omit context, misunderstand source records, or produce plausible but incorrect text. It must not independently diagnose, prescribe, determine urgency, or replace professional review.
Sources, uncertainty, and correction
Sift is intended to connect observations to supporting evidence where available and distinguish documented facts, possible explanations, contradictions, and unknowns. Users should be able to inspect sources and report corrections.
AI providers and health information
Important medical limitation
Sift is intended to support understanding and organization of healthcare information. It does not replace a licensed healthcare professional, provide emergency services, or independently establish medical diagnoses.
