An Australasian survey on the use of ChatGPT and other large language models in medical physics.

ABSTRACT: This study surveyed medical physicists in Australia and New Zealand on their use of large language models (LLMs), particularly ChatGPT. There is currently no literature on the application of ChatGPT and other LLMs by medical physicists. This survey targeted a mixed group of professionals, including clinical medical physicists, registrars, students, and other specialised roles. It reveals that many respondents integrate LLM platforms into their work for a broad range of tasks. Most participants reported efficiency gains, although fewer perceived improvements in the overall quality of their work. Despite these benefits, substantial concerns remain regarding data security, patient confidentiality, and the lack of established guidelines or professional training for using these tools in a clini
