Dr. AI will see you now. It might not be that far from the truth, as more and more physicians are turning to artificial intelligence to ease their busy workloads. Studies have shown that up to 10% of doctors are now using ChatGPT, a large language model made by OpenAI — but just how accurate are its responses?
team of researchers from the University of Kansas Medical Center decided to find out. 'Every year, about a million new medical articles are published in scientific journals, but busy doctors don’t have that much time to read them,' Dan Parente, the senior study author and an assistant professor at the university, told Fox News Digital.
Based on these findings, Parente noted that ChatGPT could help busy doctors and scientists decide which new articles in medical journals are most worthwhile for them to read. 'People should encourage their doctors to stay current with new advances in medicine so they can provide evidence-based care,' he said. 'Use them carefully' Dr.
Like any power tool, we need to use them carefully,' Parente told Fox News Digital. 'When we ask a large language model to do a new task — in this case, summarizing medical abstracts — it’s important to check that the AI is giving us reasonable and accurate answers.
