Abstract

OBJECTIVES: Following the launch of ChatGPT in November 2022, interest in large language model-powered chatbots has soared with increasing focus on the clinical potential of these tools. We sought to measure general practitioners' (GPs) current use of this new generation of chatbots to assist with any aspect of clinical practice in the UK.
