Summary
Scholar GPT significantly outperformed ChatGPT in answering oral and maxillofacial surgery questions, providing more accurate and consistent AI-generated information. This suggests specialized GPT models enhance reliability in technical fields.
Area of Science:
- Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
- Artificial Intelligence in Medicine
- Natural Language Processing
Background:
- The increasing use of AI necessitates evaluating its performance in specialized medical fields.
- Previous studies assessed general AI models like ChatGPT for medical queries.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate Scholar GPT's performance on technical oral and maxillofacial surgery questions.
- To compare Scholar GPT's efficacy against ChatGPT.
Main Methods:
- 60 technical questions from oral and maxillofacial surgery were used.
- Scholar GPT responses were evaluated using a modified Global Quality Scale (GQS).
- Scoring involved randomization and multiple evaluations by a single researcher.
Main Results:
- Scholar GPT achieved a high average GQS score of 4.48.
- This score was statistically significantly higher than ChatGPT's previous average of 3.1 (p < 0.001).
- No significant differences were found across different surgical topic groups.
Conclusions:
- Scholar GPT demonstrates superior performance and consistency over ChatGPT for oral and maxillofacial surgery queries.
- AI models trained on academic data offer more reliable medical information.
- Developing specialized GPTs for surgery can improve AI-generated content quality.
