Abstract

This study aimed to compare the knowledge and interpretation ability of ChatGPT, a language model of artificial general intelligence, with those of medical students in Korea by administering a parasitology examination to both ChatGPT and medical students. The examination consisted of 79 items and was administered to ChatGPT on January 1, 2023. The examination results were analyzed in terms of ChatGPT’s overall performance score, its correct answer rate by the items’ knowledge level, and the acceptability of its explanations of the items. ChatGPT’s performance was lower than that of the medical students, and ChatGPT’s correct answer rate was not related to the items’ knowledge level. However, there was a relationship between acceptable explanations and correct answers. In conclusion, ChatGPT’s knowledge and interpretation ability for this parasitology examination were not yet comparable to those of medical students in Korea.

ChatGPT的知识和解释能力是否与韩国医学生参加寄生虫学考试的水平相当?描述性研究

本研究旨在通过对ChatGPT和医学生进行寄生虫学检查，比较人工通用智能语言模型ChatGPT与韩国医学生的知识和解释能力。考试共79项，考试时间为2023年1月1日。根据ChatGPT的整体表现分数、题目的知识水平对答对率、题目解释的可接受度对考试结果进行分析。ChatGPT的答对率低于医学生，而且ChatGPT的答对率与题目的知识水平无关。然而，可接受的解释和正确的答案之间是有关系的。综上所述，ChatGPT对该寄生虫学检查的知识和解释能力尚不能与韩国医学生相提并论。
