The potential impact of ChatGPT in clinical and translational medicine

The Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer (ChatGPT) is an artificial intelligence (AI) model developed by Open AI for generating human-like text. ChatGPT is powered by the large language model (LLM) GPT-3.5. Like other LLM-based AIs, it has been trained on large datasets of text and can generate new text similar to the text it was trained on, which requires generating, understanding and interpreting human language using computer systems.1-3 ChatGPT simulates human interaction, and it is probably the most powerful language model currently available. It uses a deep learning technique called a ‘transformer architecture’ that is trained on massive text datasets obtained from the internet.4 ChatGPT is leading a…
