General practitioners’ adoption of generative artificial intelligence in clinical practice in the UK: An updated online survey

This survey suggests that doctors' use of GenAI in clinical practice may be growing in the UK. Findings suggest that UK GPs may benefit from these tools, especially for administrative tasks and clinical reasoning support, and after adopting them, most users reported a decrease in work burdens. Continued absence of reported training remains a concern.

Abstract

This survey suggests that doctors' use of GenAI in clinical practice may be growing in the UK. Findings suggest that UK GPs may benefit from these tools, especially for administrative tasks and clinical reasoning support, and after adopting them, most users reported a decrease in work burdens. Continued absence of reported training remains a concern.
