The AI doctor will see you now: ChatGPT passes gold-standard US medical exam

ChatGPT has passed the gold-standard exam required to practice medicine in the US - amid rising concerns AI could put white-collar workers out of jobs. The artificial intelligence program scored between 52.4 and 75 percent across the three-part Medical Licensing Exam (USMLE). Each year's passing threshold is around 60 percent. Researchers from tech company AnsibleHealth who did the study said: 'Reaching the passing score for this notoriously difficult expert exam, and doing so without any human reinforcement, marks a notable milestone in clinical AI maturation.' The full findings, which were made available as a preprint a few weeks ago, have now been peer-reviewed and published in the journal PLOS Digital Health.
