Artificial intelligence awareness and perceptions among pediatric orthopedic surgeons: A cross-sectional observational study.

Background: Artificial intelligence (AI) is a branch of computer science that allows machines to analyze large datasets, learn from patterns, and perform tasks that would otherwise require human intelligence and supervision. It is an emerging tool in pediatric orthopedic surgery, with various promising applications. An evaluation of the current awareness and perceptions among pediatric orthopedic surgeons is necessary to facilitate AI utilization and highlight possible areas of concern.
