Plutchik, a voice-enabled AI chatbot, enhances clinical care by enabling complex searches across the National Library of Medicine/National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) databases, improving access to vital medical information.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Informatics
  • Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare
  • Biomedical Data Science

Background:

  • Genetic testing is increasingly integrated into medical practice.
  • Accessing and synthesizing information from diverse biomedical databases is crucial for clinical care.
  • Existing search methods across the National Library of Medicine/National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) databases can be complex and time-consuming.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce Plutchik, a novel voice-enabled, embodied artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot.
  • To demonstrate Plutchik's capability in performing highly technical medical searches.
  • To evaluate Plutchik's potential to enhance clinical care best practices through improved database accessibility.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a voice-enabled, embodied AI chatbot named Plutchik.

  • Integration of Plutchik with the National Library of Medicine/National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) suite of databases (e.g., PubMed, GENE, Structure, Genetic Testing Registry).
  • Testing Plutchik's ability to execute complex, cross-database search queries.

    • Main Results:

    • Plutchik successfully performs voice-enabled, highly technical searches across multiple NCBI databases.
    • The AI chatbot demonstrates the potential to streamline information retrieval for clinicians.
    • Initial findings suggest enhanced efficiency in accessing comprehensive biomedical and clinical data.

    Conclusions:

    • Plutchik represents a significant advancement in AI-driven medical information retrieval.
    • The chatbot has the potential to improve the quality of clinical care by facilitating better access to biomedical knowledge.
    • Further research is warranted to fully explore the impact of embodied AI chatbots on clinical decision-making and best practices.
