Experimenting With the New Frontier: Artificial Intelligence-Powered Chat Bots in Hand Surgery.

ABSTRACT: Background: Increased utilization of artificial intelligence (AI)-driven search and large language models by the lay and medical community requires us to evaluate the accuracy of AI responses to common hand surgery questions. We hypothesized that the answers to most hand surgery questions posed to an AI large language model would be correct. Methods: Using the topics covered in Green's Operative Hand Surgery 8^th Edition as a guide, 56 hand surgery questions were compiled and posed to ChatGPT (OpenAI, San Francisco, CA). Two attending hand surgeons then independently reviewed ChatGPT's answers for response accuracy, completeness, and usefulness. A Cohen's kappa analysis was performed to assess interrater agreement. Results: An average of 45 of the 56 q
