Sumario:Science fiction literature and films no longer focus on artificial intelligence. In contrast to all other aspects of life, medical education and clinical patient care have been progressing slowly. Recently, a lot of text from the internet was used to construct and train chatbots, especially ChatGPT. The language model ChatGPT, created by OpenAI, has emerged as a useful resource for medical research and education. It has proven to be a useful tool for researchers, students, and medical professionals because of its capacity to produce human-like answers to challenging medical queries. However, using ChatGPT also has significant drawbacks. The possibility of erroneous or biased information being spread, which could have negative effects on patient care, is one of the key worries. Moreover, the overreliance on technology in medical education could also lead to a decline in critical thinking and clinical decision-making skills. Overall, ChatGPT has the potential to be a boon to medical education and research, but its use must be accompanied by caution and critical evaluation.
