Honored to share that our research, "Ophthalmic Images Generated by Artificial Intelligence: Erroneous and Non-Representative," co-authored with my colleagues Vivian Hawn, Ethan M. Stern, and Senmiao Zhan, was selected as one of the top three abstracts out of over 620 submissions at the Women in Ophthalmology conference! Kudos to Vivian for the strong work and representing the team. Our study revealed that 99% of AI-generated ophthalmic images were anatomically incorrect, lacked ethnic diversity, and were largely unsuitable for medical training or patient education. Take a look at how significantly the AI-generated images deviate from accurate representations of refractive surgery examples. These findings highlight the need for collaboration between AI developers and medical professionals to enhance the accuracy and representation of AI-generated images. Hey OpenAI, Stability AI, Midjourney - we'd love to see AI models produce images that look less like they were taken from a sci fi movie and more like they’re ready for prime time in medical education. #ophthalmology #conference #medical #education #research #innovation #artificialintelligence #diversity #collaboration
