On August 18, 2023, the Langon Medical Center at the University of New York (NYU Langone) announced the start of using the large language model of GPT4 created by OpenAI. The neural network is used to increase the efficiency of various processes in the field of health care and reduce the burden on employees.
NYU Langone doctors, nurses and administrators can direct requests to a private instance of the GPT4 on Microsoft's Azure cloud platform. Artificial intelligence, among other things, will help in optimizing patient rehabilitation programs and in identifying potential problems. For example, a neural network is able to detect inconsistencies in the prescribed course of treatment and in the list of actually taken drugs.
We have one of the country's first private, safe, and HIPAA-compliant ecosystems of health GPT4. This allowed the start of large-scale work on responsible testing of large language models in medicine, "said Nader Mherabi, executive vice president and director of digital and information technology at NYU Langone. |
At the same time, experts note that large language models like GPT4, despite tens of billions of estimated parameters, can draw conclusions that do not correspond to reality. Such systems should therefore be controlled by people - especially in important areas such as health care. In the future, AI technologies are expected to help improve safety and improve the quality of health care. However, NYU Langone emphasizes that even when new applications are found for GPT4, each artificial intelligence finding will serve only to improve the work of medical professionals.[1]
