Popis
Shrnutí:Purpose Despite the robust expansion of research surrounding artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) and their applications to medicine, these methodologies often remain opaque and inaccessible to many otolaryngologists. Especially, with the increasing ubiquity of large-language models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT and their potential implementation in clinical practice, clinicians may benefit from a baseline understanding of some aspects of AI. In this narrative review, we seek to clarify underlying concepts, illustrate applications to otolaryngology, and highlight future directions and limitations of these tools. Methods Recent literature regarding AI principles and otolaryngologic applications of ML and LLMs was reviewed via search in PubMed and Google Scholar. Results Significant recent strides have been made in otolaryngology research utilizing AI and ML, across all subspecialties, including neurotology, head and neck oncology, laryngology, rhinology, and sleep surgery. Potential applications suggested by recent publications include screening and diagnosis, predictive tools, clinical decision support, and clinical workflow improvement via LLMs. Ongoing concerns regarding AI in medicine include ethical concerns around bias and data sharing, as well as the “black box” problem and limitations in explainability. Conclusions Potential implementations of AI in otolaryngology are rapidly expanding. While implementation in clinical practice remains theoretical for most of these tools, their potential power to influence the practice of otolaryngology is substantial. Level of evidence 4.
