- Abstract
Objectives ChatGPT (OpenAI, San Francisco, CA) has shown impressive results across various medical examinations, but its performance in kidney pathology is not yet established. This study evaluated proficiencies of GPT-4 Vision (GPT-4V), an updated version of the platform with the ability to analyze images, on kidney pathology questions and compared its responses with those of nephrology trainees. Methods Thirty-nine questions (19 text-based questions and 20 with various kidney biopsy images) designed specifically for the training of nephrology fellows were employed. Results GPT-4V displayed comparable accuracy rates in the first and second runs (67% and 72%, respectively, P = .50). The aggregated accuracy, however—particularly, the consistent accuracy—of GPT-4V was lower than that of trainees (72% and 67% vs 79%). Both GPT-4V and trainees displayed comparable accuracy in responding to image-based and text-only questions (55% vs 79% and 81% vs 78%, P = .11 and P = .67, respectively). The consistent accuracy in image-based, directly asked questions for GPT-4V was 29%, much lower than its 88% consistency on text-only, directly asked questions (P = .02). In contrast, trainees maintained similar accuracy in directly asked image-based and text-based questions (80% vs 77%, P = .65). Although the aggregated accuracy for correctly interpreting images was 69%, the consistent accuracy across both runs was only 39%. The accuracy of GPT-4V in answering questions with correct image interpretation was significantly higher than for questions with incorrect image interpretation (100% vs 0% and 100% vs 33% for the first and second runs, P = .001 and P = .02, respectively). Conclusions The performance of GPT-4V in handling kidney pathology questions, especially those including images, is limited. There is a notable need for enhancement in GPT-4V proficiency in interpreting images.
