RFK Jr. believes AI will free people from medical "tyranny"

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. stated at a "Make America Healthy Again" event on Tuesday that artificial intelligence (AI) could free Americans from the "medical tyranny" of doctors and health experts. The politician, who has previously voiced skepticism about vaccines, proposed that individuals should use AI to obtain a second opinion on medical recommendations.

Kennedy claimed that AI is "better informed than any doctor in the country" and suggested the technology would validate his own views on vaccines and public health guidance. He believes AI will allow people to question advice from public officials.

"We're never, ever again going to be able to be dominated by public officials who tell us trust the experts, because every American will be able to check their own medical advice," Kennedy said during a discussion with Vice President JD Vance.

He expressed that the Trump administration is making it easier for Americans to use AI, implying increased accessibility to the technology for personal health assessments.
