Statements may be answered with “True”, “False” or “Don't Know”: a correct answer is awarded 1 point; an incorrect is penalized 0.5 points; “don't know” scores 0 points. At least 60 % correct answers are needed to pass the exam. After explaining the rules to the chatbots, he entire question with the 5 statements was input. The rate of correct answers and the final score were collected. The exam simulation was repeated 3 times with randomly generated questions.</p></div><div><h3>Results</h3><p>Google Gemini and ChatGPT-4 succeed in EBO exam simulations in all 3 cases, with an average 85.3 ± 3.1 % and 83.3 ± 2.4 % of correct answers. Gemini had a lower error rate compared to ChatGPT (6.7 ± 1.5 % vs. 13.0 ± 2.6 %, <em>p</em> = 0.03), but answered “Don't know” more frequently (8.0 ± 2.7 % vs. 3.7 ± 1.5 %, <em>p</em> = 0.05). Both chatbots scored at least 70 % of correct answers in each exam subspecialty across the 3 simulations.
