Figure 1
Presents the performance of specialist reviewers in identifying ChatGPT®-generated scientific manuscripts vs. original published manuscripts in three tests, each containing two stages; the initial assessment, referred to as abstract detection, and the final assessment, which includes the introduction with references. The reviewers' assessments are represented using colors, with red indicating “Incorrect” (misidentification), green indicating “Correct” (accurate identification), and yellow indicating “Uncertain” (indicating uncertainty). Reviewers demonstrated a better performance in identifying ChatGPT®-generated manuscripts in Test 2 (the highly familiar subject of steroid-responsive meningitis-arteritis in dogs) vs. Test 1 (SARS-CoV-2 detection dogs) and Test 3 (Cannabinoid receptors in canine epilepsy), which were referred to as less familiar and moderately familiar subjects. In the final assessment, reviewers demonstrated improved performance in three tests, indicating that the reviewers were able to refine their assessments and make more accurate conclusions by incorporating specific information and references.
