Experts Warn of AI Health Gadgets at CES

At the big tech show in Las Vegas, there were lots of new health gadgets using AI.

Some of these gadgets promise to help people track their health, like a smart scale that checks your heart health by scanning your feet, and an egg-shaped device that helps women figure out the best time to have a baby.

But experts are worried about these gadgets.

They say the gadgets might not be accurate and could have problems with keeping your personal information private.

The government is making it easier for these gadgets to be sold, but experts warn that they should not replace doctors.

The creators of these gadgets say they are filling important gaps in healthcare, especially for women's health, which has not been studied enough in the past.

Some gadgets are also meant to help people in areas where there are not enough doctors.

While these gadgets can be helpful, experts say they should not be used instead of seeing a doctor.
