Assessment of the Quality and Utility of Chat-Based AI Responses to Gastrointestinal Surgical Questions

Clinicians evaluated the quality and utility of chat-based AI responses to common gastrointestinal surgical questions. Responses were rated as fair or good overall, with cholecystectomy responses deemed of better quality than pancreaticoduodenectomy or colectomy responses. While some experts found the AI to be an accurate source of information, others deemed it unreliable and not comparable to in-person surgeon responses.
