The ground breaking story of the recent days is Google's medically focused generative artificial intelligence (AI) model achieved 85% accuracy on a U.S. Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) practice test, the highest score ever recorded by an AI model.
The AI model, known as Med-PaLM 2 (Pathways Language Model), consistently performed at an "expert" physician level on the sample of USMLE-style practice questions. It achieved 85% accuracy, beating previous record.
ChatGPT also urged healthcare professionals to stay informed about the latest developments in the technology and to remain open to the possibilities of using it to improve patient care. The chatbot itself emphasized that it is "not capable of replacing human healthcare professionals."
It is good to take suggestion from the Chatbot, but not to depend on it wholly. The suggestions on the diagnosis can be seen in the light of differential diagnosis, rather than final diagnosis. General Public should not depend on it and indulge in self-treatment. However, it is expected to improve further.
