ChatGPT prepares reports approximately 10 times faster than doctors

According to a study conducted by scientists, the artificial intelligence program ChatGPT can prepare medical reports approximately 10 times faster than doctors.

According to the study, hospital discharge papers for fictional cases prepared by 2 orthopedic surgeons were filled out by both doctors and ChatGPT.

The reports were presented to a panel of 15 experts in the field.

In the pilot study involving 6 cases, hospital discharge papers for the fictional cases were filled out by ChatGPT and the doctors.

The expert panel could not distinguish the difference between the reports.

While doctors spent an average of 27.8 minutes on each report, ChatGPT prepared reports of similar quality in 2.9 minutes.

Cyrus Broden, an orthopedic doctor working at Uppsala University Hospital in Sweden, stated that they have already begun work on a more comprehensive artificial intelligence test involving the medical records of 1,000 real patients.

Drawing attention to the heavy paperwork burden on doctors, Broden said, "Thanks to advancements in artificial intelligence, opportunities are emerging to reduce the administrative burden on healthcare workers. This will allow doctors to dedicate more time to their patients."

The research article was published in the journal "Acta Orthopaedica".
