Abstract
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the quality of information provided by artificial intelligence (AI) applications regarding ENT surgeries and usability for patients.
Methods: ChatGPT 4.0, GEMINI 1.5 Flash, Copilot, Claude 3.5 Sonnet and DeepSeek-R1 were asked to provide detailed responses to patient-oriented questions about 15 ENT surgeries. Each AI application was queried three times, with a 3-day interval between each session. Two ENT specialists evaluated all responses using the Quality Analysis of Medical Artificial Intelligence (QAMAI) tool.
Results: Average QAMAI scores for each AI application were as follows: ChatGPT 4.0 (27.56 ± 1.20), GEMINI 1.5 Flash (26.24 ± 1.26), Copilot (26.84 ± 1.35), Claude 3.5 Sonnet (28.24 ± 0.77) and DeepSeek-R1 (28.13 ± 0.84). A statistically significant difference was found among the applications (p < 0.001). ICC analysis indicated high stability across evaluations conducted for all five AI applications (p < 0.001).
Conclusion: AI has the potential to provide patients with accurate and consistent information about ENT surgeries, yet differences in QAMAI scores show that information quality varies between platforms.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology (JLO) is a leading, monthly journal containing original scientific articles and clinical records in otology, rhinology, laryngology and related specialties. Founded in 1887, JLO is absorbing reading for ENT specialists and trainees. The journal has an international outlook with contributions from around the world, relevant to all specialists in this area regardless of the country in which they practise. JLO contains main articles (original, review and historical), case reports and short reports as well as radiology, pathology or oncology in focus, a selection of abstracts, book reviews, letters to the editor, general notes and calendar, operative surgery techniques, and occasional supplements.
