Happy to jam today with Dr. Lisa Traboco @rheumarhyme.bsky.social on leveraging ChatGPT for clinical practice!

We discussed how AI can complement the work of our Nephrology colleagues and attempted a differential diagnosis and treatment plan for a case. @hellokidneymd.bsky.social

While it is prudent to issue a general statement for your side of the story, sometimes when the cyberbullying comments are simply not true, there is more wisdom in not engaging and not dignifying with a response. Disconnect. Disengage. #HealthXPH

T3. The best defense is to stay clean, and have a reliable set of loyal and clean friends.

Make people think twice of besmirching your good name...

Maybe keep a lower profile - public figures are more prone to public attack.

And think twice about being political about anything.

T3. What personal safeguards (both in real life and virtually) do you place to avoid defamation?

T3. Ego management is essential - as professionals, it can be tempting to try to "fight fire with gasoline" - but this is a losing proposition IMO.

Defend. Disengage. Wait them out. If they are truly suffering from something... they could implode anyway. But I never wish them that.

#healthxph
Attackers, I've seen, can be very rapid... and very energetic. Energetic and passionate enough to unearth ANYTHING online that can be incriminating evidence.

T3. If you are a victim of attack, defend yourself, but also look to disengage quickly. Getting dragged into a mudslinging match with someone is not productive.

Desiderata: Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the spirit. This is timeless advice.

T3. IMO defamation is not a "normal" behavior - any time I encounter someone like this, I usually suspect some mental health or personality disorder (e.g. narcissism, histrionics, borderline, sociopathy, etc.). Unfortunately IMO there is no negotiating with such people.

T3. My late father had advice I always took to heart: be nice to people on the way up, because you will see them on the way down too. Keeping on the good sides of people can shield you somewhat. eventually. Also keep records and receipts to defend yourself in case you are attacked.

T2. I saw this a lot during the pandemic. Academics and doctors calling each other out - making public statements against each other. I think it was partly the crisis environment, but also a reflection of (latent) personalities.

Despite this, not sure if it is a common thing though.

T2. In your locality/experience, what would be the most common ways a healthcare worker can be defamed?

T1. I see defamation usually go hand-in-hand with politicking and passive-aggression. It's devastating to be at the receiving end of this and also mind-blowing to realize some people do this intentionally.

#healthxph
Topics for discussion tonight! :)

T1. What does defamation mean for you, personally? Where and how do you see this happen the most?

Defamation and the Healthcare Worker
If you have been on social media much lately, you would have likely seen the Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively defamation issue in the US…

IMO if many of us went to socmed to "connect", for GenA and GenB, they may find their connection with AI instead. (Remember that teen who commited S due to a character AI?). This change in behavior is something worth watching unfold over the next decade.

#healthxph
Interesting thought. #healthxph
one to one instead of one to many though AI is "many in one" hmmm...
February 8, 2025 at 2:21 PM
I have a feeling we've seen peak socmed in recent years - esp with the deterioration of X and FB. Only ads keeps those platforms afloat (and twisted).

Bsky hasn't exhibited that decline yet. And Threads and Mastodon haven't quite caught the same momentum.

#healthxph
I don’t go to LinkedIn much unless there’s a blog post that I come across and click through. I’ve been posting content I find on BlueSky on Facebook though. Just like when Twitter was new and useful. #healthxph I’ve posted less here but I gain more by looking has been my experience this past months.
February 8, 2025 at 1:58 PM
T3. I post similar content across FB, Twitter, and LI - and get very different reactions from each platform depending on the topic. Some reason I feel less compelled to do that in Bsky. I'm looking for something different here. Not sure yet what I will find.

T3. I'm entering Bsky in my middle age... so my habits here will likely be different from when I joined FB, Twitter, even LI (even Multiply and Friendster once). I feel less pressured to build and chase a following, and I prefer quality here over quantity.

T2. I'm building my Bsky feed slowly. Good overlap with previous X following but I'm curating more now. I check out starter packs for leads on who to follow but I don't auto follow everyone on a pack. In a way I want to avoid recreating my X feed. Hope Bsky stays pristine.

#healthxph
February 8, 2025 at 1:46 PM
T1. My recent Twitter feed was all about about the destruction of humanitarian aid. I'm deeply affected by both the journalism and healthcare fronts of this.

#healthxph
A certain someone on X said if you criticize a certain world leader, your account will be deleted, and you will be reported to law enforcement. So, total freedom there. #HealthXPh
February 8, 2025 at 1:32 PM
T1. I'm probably one foot out the door already on X/Twitter. I noticed only political posts and memes get engagement there. Politics quickly gets tiresome (for me) - so as more people I know switch (to Bsky), I will simply follow them out.

#healthxph
Let’s start with T1. #healthxph
Hmm not sure the picture is showing up correctly. Looks cut off at the sides?
February 8, 2025 at 1:26 PM
Everything on Bsky feels like Twitter of yesteryears. Just stuff happening, no toxicity...

#healthxph
Hello there! #healthxph I can see the posts using the search function but I can only reply but not type a new post within that inerface. Hmmm …

Had an interesting chat with the One News crew on the topic of BPOs, AI, and jobs. Let me know your thoughts on this. Just basing on the YT comments, I think there's a lot of misinformation to sort out.
