Dear ChatGPT – can you teach me how to program an app for laboratory medicine?
The multifaceted potential of ChatGPT in the medical domain remains underexplored, particularly regarding its application in software development by individuals with a medical background but limited information technology expertise.
Methods
This study investigates ChatGPT’s utility in creating a laboratory medicine application.
Results
Despite minimal programming skills, the authors successfully developed an automated intra-assay, inter-device precision test for immunophenotyping with a shiny user interface, facilitated by ChatGPT. While the coding process was expedited, meticulous oversight and error correction by the authors were imperative.
Conclusions
These findings highlight the value of large language models such as ChatGPT in code-based application development for automating work processes in a medical context. Particularly noteworthy is the facilitation of these tasks for non-technically trained medical professionals and its potential for digital medical education.
