Abstract

We thank the authors who submitted a short summary and comment on our narrative review about ChatGPT1. As of the end of November 2023, a keyword search for ‘ChatGPT’ in PubMed (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=“ChatGPT”) results in more than 1750 entries, some even in the field of oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMS)2,3. This increase in publications appears not to be slowing down, which shows the huge controversy that ChatGPT has brought to the medical field within the space of only about a year, and which it continues to bring.
