The research focuses on discharge notes written by doctors to capture patient's health status in the medical record as they are discharged from the hospital.

Key Points: 
  • The research focuses on discharge notes written by doctors to capture patient's health status in the medical record as they are discharged from the hospital.
  • Specifically, running discharge notes through generative AI dropped the reports from an eleventh-grade reading level on average to a sixth grade level, the gold standard for patient education materials.
  • They also found that just 56% of notes created by AI were entirely complete.
  • Feldman notes that generative AI tools are sensitive, and asking a question of the tool in two subtly different ways may yield divergent answers.

NEW YORK, March 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ --Publishing online March 6 in the Journal of Medical Internet Research, the study examined the capabilities of a form of artificial intelligence (AI) called generative AI or GenAI, which predicts likely options for the next word in any sentence based on how billions of people used words in context on the internet. A side effect of this next-word prediction is that the generative AI "chatbots" like chatGPT can generate replies to questions in realistic language, and produce clear summaries of complex texts.

Key Points: 
  • Led by researchers at NYU Langone Health, the current paper explores the application of ChatGPT to the design of a software program that uses text messages to counter diabetes by encouraging patients to eat healthier and get exercise.
  • The team tested whether AI-enabled interchanges between doctors and software engineers could hasten the development of such a personalized automatic messaging system ( PAMS ).
  • If this proves to be effective at scale it could revolutionize healthcare software design."
  • AI could take software design only so far before human software developers were needed for final code generation, but the overall process was greatly accelerated, say the authors.
