Integration of large language models (LLMs) into academic surgical settings can revolutionize practices by reducing administrative burdens, enhancing efficiency, and facilitating surgical research. Despite challenges such as generalization performance and ethical concerns, LLMs show promise in triaging patient concerns, generating automated responses, and improving efficiency. Further research and precautionary measures are recommended to ensure safe and unbiased use of LLMs in surgery.
