Q&A

What is Shepherd’s DiagnoseAI?

Shepherd’s DiagnoseAI is a sophisticated computer program designed to assist veterinarians with clinical decisions support in the field veterinary medicine. It utilizes a large language model (LLM) artificial intelligence algorithm to provide information, answer queries, and offer support related to the health and well-being of your patients.

(What's an LLM?? LLMs are models trained on large datasets to understand and generate human-like language)

What can DiagnoseAI do?

DiagnoseAI will analyze the symptoms described in the SOAP and provide potential explanations for the pet's condition. The assistant also offers preliminary advice on what treatments or actions can be taken to help address the pet's condition. DiagnoseAI can provide information on various topics such as pet nutrition, health issues, preventive care, behavioral concerns, and general pet wellness.

How does Shepherd’s DiagnoseAI stay updated with the latest information in veterinary medicine?

Shepherd’s DiagnoseAI is designed to access and analyze a vast amount of information from reliable sources, including peer-reviewed journals, veterinary databases, and reputable online resources. It is regularly updated to ensure that the information it provides is current and accurate.

But, WHAT reputable online sources?!

Fair question! Since we're not directly partnered with any individual online publication or information source, and we're not able to pinpoint the publicly available source(s) accessed for any individual response, we can't endorse a publication by sharing it.

Can we trust the information given by DiagnoseAI?

Yes...but sometimes no.

Yes - DiagnoseAI has been thoroughly tested and checked by real humans on our internal team, as well as external resources (including veterinarians!) to validate the information in responses it provides. We are continually developing specialized datasets to improve the knowledge and accountability of these models for the veterinary industry.

No - The tool does have limitations and won't always get it right, but your feedback will help it improve. It's important to remember this is an aid, like searching the web; and should be used as a reference and guide, not as a primary method of determining a diagnosis or treatment plan.

Can Shepherd’s DiagnoseAI replace the expertise of a veterinarian in diagnosing illnesses?

No, Shepherd’s DiagnoseAI is a tool designed to support our veterinarians in their diagnostic process, providing valuable insights and suggestions. It is not a substitute for the expertise and clinical judgment of a qualified veterinarian. The final diagnosis and treatment decisions should always be made by a licensed veterinary professional.
