Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) encompasses the development of computer systems capable of tasks typically requiring human intelligence, such as visual perception, speech recognition, decision-making and language translation. Over time, numerous applications have emerged, with the integration of AI into medicine marking a significant leap forward in healthcare delivery, diagnosis and treatment. Among medical specialties, dermatology stands at the forefront of AI advancements, leveraging machine learning and deep learning to enhance dermatologists' abilities and improve patient care. ChatGPT is an advanced language model by OpenAI, originally designed for conversations, which has expanded its utility into diverse fields, including healthcare and dermatology. In this context, the aim of this review article was to explore the synergistic relationship between ChatGPT and dermatology, examining how this innovative AI model is reshaping skin health management, its potential applications, preliminary data on its efficiency and accuracy, as well as ethical and legal concerns related to the use of its tool.
