Unlocking Eyecare with OpenAI's Insightful Chatbot
—
On a revolutionary turn in modern healthcare, a recent study demonstrated that the technology behind ChatGPT surpassed non-specialist doctors when giving advice on eye problems. This momentous discovery was led by the University of Cambridge and revealed that GPT-4, OpenAI’s large language model (LLM), performed nearly on par with specialist eye doctors in a written multiple-choice examination.
The AI model, renowned for generating text based on the data it has been trained on, was assessed next to doctors at varying professional stages, including junior doctors without a specialism and both trainee and expert eye doctors. They were all presented with a range of patient scenarios each exhibiting specific eye-related problems and were tasked in providing a diagnosis or treatment advice.
Surprisingly, the GPT-4 model outscored junior doctors and achieved nearly the same score as both trainee and expert ophthalmologists, only falling short to the top experts in the field. Critics and skeptics alike may discount AI’s prowess in medical practice as merely regurgitating medical literature, but given the AI was trained on publicly unavailable content, this is generally unlikely the case.
The study findings serve as a prompt for viewing AI not as a replacement to doctors, but rather support to the healthcare system where it could potentially alleviate doctors’ workload and reduce long waiting lists, ultimately serving a greater number of patients on a timely basis.
