TLDR

AI models excel on medical exams but struggle with slightly altered questions, suggesting they may not truly understand medical content, according to a study in JAMA Network Open.

AI's high scores on medical exams may be misleading. A new study shows that when the correct answer is replaced with "None of the other answers," model accuracy plummets. This suggests a reliance on pattern recognition over genuine clinical reasoning.
