I agree, but only because they used GPT 3.5 and not 4. Not that I think 4 would have been perfect or that you should follow medical advice from LLMs right now, but it would have been much more accurate.

I thought it was 4 before looking into it. It seems they ran the experiment in the same month GPT-4 was released, that's unfortunate.

Yeah what's interesting is it was just published this week even though they did the tests in April. April is like 100 AI years ago.

That's actually a short time for peer-reviewed work. Most things being published now, unless they're in pre-print servers, are results from studies that likely started at least 6 months ago.
