dc.description.abstractObjective: The aim of our study is to assess the reliability of Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer (ChatGPT), compare the performance of ChatGPT-4 to ChatGPT-3.5, and explore its potential roles in healthcare decision-making. Materials and Methods: Thirty questions related to testicular cancer were prepared, based on the 2023 European Association of Urology guidelines and clinical experience. These questions were systematically posed to ChatGPT-3.5 and ChatGPT-4, and responses were rated by three independent urologists using a six-point Likert scale. The median score from the three specialists was used as the final score. Results: Both ChatGPT versions provided an incorrect answer to one question, scoring a one. For GPT-3.5 and GPT-4, the percentage of responses considered incorrect by the urologists was 20% and 13.3%, respectively, while correct responses (scoring 3 or higher) accounted for 80% and 86.7%. For general information-diagnosis questions, GPT-3.5 and GPT-4, had average scores of 4.29 and 4.80, with median values of 4.27 and 4.67. For treatment follow-up questions, average scores were 3.60 and 4.16, with median values of 3.60 and 4.20. GPT 4 generally outperformed GPT-3.5, but the difference was not statistically significant (p>0.05). Conclusion: Our study shows that ChatGPT-4 is more reliable and accurate than ChatGPT-3.5 in testicular cancer-related queries. Continued development of its database and clinical capabilities could optimize ChatGPT’s utility in healthcare.
