Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Head and neck cancers (HNCs) are a significant global health concern, contributing to substantial morbidity and mortality. AI-powered chatbots such as ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, and Open Evidence are increasingly used by patients seeking health information. While these tools provide immediate access to medical content, concerns remain regarding their reliability, readability, and potential impact on patient outcomes.
