AI Article Synopsis

  • Researchers are looking at how AI, like ChatGPT, can help choose new doctors for surgical training instead of just using humans to review applications.
  • The study found that AI was more consistent in grading letters about students than human reviewers, but it still has some weaknesses.
  • More research is needed to understand how to use AI safely and effectively in picking the best candidates for residency programs.

Article Abstract

The incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI) into the general surgery residency recruitment process holds great promise for overcoming limitations inherent to traditional application review methods. This study assesses the consistency of AI, particularly ChatGPT, in evaluating medical student performance evaluation (MSPE) letters in comparison to experienced human reviewers. While the results suggest that ChatGPT demonstrates greater consistency in grading than human reviewers, AI still has its limitations. This underscores the necessity for careful refinement and consideration in its implementation. While AI presents opportunities to enhance residency selection procedures, further research is imperative to fully grasp its capabilities and implications.
