Big Red Bark Chat
Cornell's Richard P. Riney Canine Health Center has developed an AI tool designed to provide quick and reliable answers to canine health questions. We asked it about one of our dog's that had a crusty eye and got very reasonable responses. (We'd also seen a vet.)
While not a substitute for seeing a vet, we had fun playing around with it.
You can try it out here.
