The promise and pitfalls of AI in clinical reasoning

Large language models like GPT-4 and Gemini-1.0-Pro are transforming clinical reasoning with their advanced diagnostic capabilities. Despite their potential, these AI tools exhibit flaws that reflect human cognitive biases, raising concerns about their reliability in clinical settings. Recent studies reveal that while GPT-4 can outperform human clinicians independently, it does not enhance their performance when used alongside traditional tools.

Further research indicates that LLMs like GPT-4 and Gemini-1.0-Pro can exhibit significant cognitive biases, sometimes even more pronounced than those seen in human clinicians. Experts suggest that clinicians should employ critical questioning techniques to scrutinize AI-generated conclusions, ensuring a balanced approach to diagnosis. As these AI models become more integrated into healthcare, careful evaluation and strategic implementation are crucial for optimizing patient outcomes.

• GPT-4 shows superior diagnostic capabilities compared to human clinicians when used independently.

• AI models exhibit cognitive biases that can affect clinical decision-making.
