LLMs have clinically significant error rates
Of the models tested on a standardized set of oncology questions, GPT-4 was observed to have the highest performance.

Given the enthusiasm to integrate these new implementations of AI into clinical practice, continued standardized evaluations of the strengths and limitations of these products will be critical to guide both patients and medical professionals.
