Bias Sensitivity in Diagnostic Decision-Making: Comparing ChatGPT with Residents

It seems that, while ChatGPT is not sensitive to bias when biasing information is situational, it is sensitive to bias when the biasing information is part of the patient's disease history. Its utility in diagnostic support has potential, but caution is advised. Future research should enhance AI's bias detection and mitigation to make it truly useful for diagnostic support.

Abstract

It seems that, while ChatGPT is not sensitive to bias when biasing information is situational, it is sensitive to bias when the biasing information is part of the patient's disease history. Its utility in diagnostic support has potential, but caution is advised. Future research should enhance AI's bias detection and mitigation to make it truly useful for diagnostic support.
