Popis: Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT 4 (OpenAI), Claude 2 (Anthropic), and Llama 2 (Meta AI) have emerged as novel technologies to integrate artificial intelligence (AI) into everyday work. LLMs in particular, and AI in general, carry infinite potential to streamline clinical workflows, outsource resource-intensive tasks, and disburden the healthcare system. While a plethora of trials is elucidating the untapped capabilities of this technology, the sheer pace of scientific progress also takes its toll. Legal guidelines hold a key role in regulating upcoming technologies, safeguarding patients, and determining individual and institutional liabilities. To date, there is a paucity of research work delineating the legal regulations of Language Models and AI for clinical scenarios in plastic and reconstructive surgery. This knowledge gap poses the risk of lawsuits and penalties against plastic surgeons. Thus, we aim to provide the first overview of legal guidelines and pitfalls of LLMs and AI for plastic surgeons. Our analysis encompasses models like ChatGPT, Claude 2, and Llama 2, among others, regardless of their closed or open-source nature. Ultimately, this line of research may help clarify the legal responsibilities of plastic surgeons and seamlessly integrate such cutting-edge technologies into the field of PRS.
