The recent rise in telemedicine, notably during the COVID-19 pandemic, highlights the potential of integrating artificial intelligence tools in healthcare. This study assessed the effectiveness of ChatGPT versus medical oncologists in the telemedicine-based management of metastatic prostate cancer. In this retrospective study, 102 patients who met inclusion criteria were analyzed to compare the competencies of ChatGPT and oncologists in telemedicine consultations. ChatGPT’s role in pre-charting and determining the need for in-person consultations was evaluated. The primary outcome was the concordance between ChatGPT and oncologists in treatment decisions. Results showed a moderate concordance (Cohen’s Kappa = 0.43, p < 0.001). The number of diagnoses made by both parties was not significantly different (median number of diagnoses: 5 vs. 5, p = 0.12). In conclusion, ChatGPT exhibited moderate agreement with oncologists in management via telemedicine, indicating the need for further research to explore its healthcare applications.
