The promise of AI Large Language Models for Epilepsy care.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has been supporting our digital life for decades, but public interest in this has exploded with the recognition of large language models, such as GPT-4. We examine and evaluate the potential uses for generative AI technologies in epilepsy and neurological services. Generative AI could not only improve patient care and safety by refining communication and removing certain barriers to healthcare but may also extend to streamlining a doctor's practice through strategies such as automating paperwork. Challenges with the integration of generative AI in epilepsy services are also explored and include the risk of producing inaccurate and biased information. The impact generative AI could have on the provision of healthcare, both positive and negative, should be understood and considered carefully when deciding on the steps that need to be taken before AI is ready for use in hospitals and epilepsy services.
