Özet
Introduction: The objective of this study is to evaluate the accuracy, applicability, comprehensiveness, and communi cation quality of responses generated by ChatGPT® and Google Gemini® in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS)-re lated scenarios, with the aim of assessing their potential utility as tools in patient management. Material and Methods: Six case-based questions reflecting common patient concerns related to adolescent idiopathic scoliosis were developed by orthopedic specialists. Responses generated by ChatGPT and Google Gemini were independently evaluated by 61 ortho pedic surgeons using a standardized rubric assessing accuracy, applicability, comprehensiveness, and communication clarity, each rated on a 1-5 Likert scale. Comparative analyses be tween platforms were performed using the Mann-Whitney U and Wilcoxon Signed Rank tests. Additionally, open-ended feedback was collected to explore participants’ perspectives on the potential and limitations of AI-based consultations. Results: ChatGPT outperformed Google Gemini in terms of accuracy (p = 0.013) in post-operative care scenarios. The results for applicability (p = 0.119), comprehensiveness (p = 0.619), and communication (p = 0.240) were not statistically significant. Orthopedic specialists rated both AI models sig nificantly higher than residents in accuracy, applicability, and comprehensiveness. Most evaluators acknowledged the po tential of AI to reduce physician workload and support patient guidance; however, concerns were raised regarding reliability,
