Artificial intelligence and ChatGPT in Orthopaedics and sports medicine

Aly M Fayed et al. J Exp Orthop. .

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is looked upon nowadays as the potential major catalyst for the fourth industrial revolution. In the last decade, AI use in Orthopaedics increased approximately tenfold. Artificial intelligence helps with tracking activities, evaluating diagnostic images, predicting injury risk, and several other uses. Chat Generated Pre-trained Transformer (ChatGPT), which is an AI-chatbot, represents an extremely controversial topic in the academic community. The aim of this review article is to simplify the concept of AI and study the extent of AI use in Orthopaedics and sports medicine literature. Additionally, the article will also evaluate the role of ChatGPT in scientific research and publications.Level of evidence: Level V, letter to review.

Keywords: Artificial intelligence; ChatGPT; Distance mapping; Machine learning; Statistical algorithm.
