The artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot ChatGPT has generated both huge interest and deep concern since its launch in November 2022.1 ChatGPT, a large language model (LLM) with a conversational interface, has been trained on vast amounts of human-generated text and has the ability to respond to questions and complete various text-related tasks. The use of ChatGPT and similar LLMs in dentistry is unlikely to significantly impact the daily routine of most dental healthcare personnel but could streamline administrative workflows and potentially serve as an additional tool for clinical decision support in the future. However, this is contingent on the availability of comprehensive, up-to-date, and unbiased data. The use of LLMs also causes privacy and cybersecurity concerns. It is therefore crucial to implement robust data protection measures and strong defenses against malicious use of LLMs. Although ChatGPT provides succinct answers to most queries, its lack of reliability, transparency, and up-to-date knowledge compared with conventional search engines is a major drawback, particularly for health-related queries.
自2022年11月推出以来，人工智能（AI）聊天机器人ChatGPT引起了极大的兴趣和深切的关注。1 ChatGPT是一种具有对话界面的大型语言模型（LLM），它基于大量人工生成的文本进行训练，能够回答问题并完成各种与文本相关的任务。在牙科领域使用ChatGPT和类似的大型语言模型不太可能对大多数牙科医护人员的日常工作产生重大影响，但可以简化行政工作流程，并有可能在未来作为临床决策支持的额外工具。然而，这取决于是否有全面、最新且无偏差的数据。使用大型语言模型还会引发隐私和网络安全问题。因此，实施强有力的数据保护措施以及对恶意使用大型语言模型的强大防御至关重要。尽管ChatGPT能对大多数查询提供简洁的答案，但与传统搜索引擎相比，它缺乏可靠性、透明度和最新知识，这是一个主要缺点，尤其是对于与健康相关的查询。
