ChatGPT-4’s Level of Dermatological Knowledge Based on Board Exam Review Questions and Bloom’s Taxonomy

ABSTRACT

Our study demonstrated the ability of ChatGPT-4 to answer 77.5% of all sampled text-based board review type questions correctly. Questions requiring recall of factual information were answered correctly most often, with slight decreases in correctness as higher-order thinking requirements increased. Improvements to ChatGPT’s visual diagnostics capabilities will be required before it can be used reliably for clinical decision-making and visual diagnostics
