The potential for LLM #AI to do accurate triage in the emergency department for patient acuity JAMA Network Open Atul Butte jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman…


Out today in JAMA Network Open! Cross-sectional study w/ 10 000 pairs of ED visits, OpenAI GPT accurately identified the patient w/ higher acuity when given pairs of deidentified presenting histories. Work by Chris Williams Travis Zack Brenda Miao Madhumita Sushil Michelle Wang


In one of the first studies to test whether AI can help triage real-world ER patients, new UCSF research suggests AI could one day help doctors make one of the most critical decisions in medicine: who to give urgent medical care to first sfchronicle.com/health/article… via San Francisco Chronicle


Eric Topol JAMA Network Open Atul Butte We commend Chris Williams Atul Butte and team on this new work. In this JAMA Network Open editorial we offer some thoughts on the study's promising findings and important caveats for advancing this important area of work @AriBFriedman Gary Weissman jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman…

#AI can help triage patients in emergency departments, a study in JAMA Network Open finds. But lead author Dr. Christopher Williams cautions: “First we need to know if it works & understand how it works, & then be careful & deliberate in how it is applied." ucsfh.org/3UOoOxF

Excited to be at AMIA #CIC24 in Minneapolis this week alongside an incredible UCSF Health UCSF DoC-IT team, giving a talk on how #LLMs can be used to identify barriers to optimal patient care #qualityimprovement Join us at 9.30 am CT Wednesday in Marquette 2&3!


PhD exit talk by Brenda Miao Brenda Miao happening on Thursday 2pm UC San Francisco Byers Auditorium, with reception to follow! Join us in celebrating Brenda's PhD work! Uncovering Strategies For Personalized Treatment Selection Using Large Language Models Healthcare data has never been so


Thanks to KCBS 106.9 FM/740 AM for having me on air!

#AI is helpful in an ER setting but shouldn't be blindly trusted, UCSF’s Dr. Chris Williams tells KRON4 News. It can help answer exam questions & draft notes—"but it’s not currently designed for situations that call for multiple considerations," he explains. ucsfh.org/3U5bhRF
