ABSTRACT The European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (EUCAST) recommends two steps for detecting beta-lactamases in Gram-negative bacteria. Screening potential extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL), plasmid-mediated AmpC beta-lactamase, or carbapenemase production is confirmed. We aimed to validate generative pre-trained transformer (GPT)-4 and GPT-agent pre-classification of disk diffusion indicate beta-lactamases. assigned 225 isolates based phenotypic resistances against beta-lactam antibiotics additional tests one more resistance mechanisms as follows: “none,” “ESBL,” “AmpC,” “carbapenemase.” Next, we customized a with EUCAST guidelines breakpoint table (v13.1). compared routine diagnostics (reference) those (i) EUCAST-GPT-expert, (ii) microbiologists, (iii) non-customized GPT-4. determined sensitivities specificities flag suspect resistances. Three microbiologists showed concordance 814/862 (94.4%) categories were used median eight words (interquartile range [IQR] 4–11) reasoning. Median sensitivity/specificity ESBL, AmpC, 98%/99.1%, 96.8%/97.1%, 95.5%/98.5%, respectively. prompts EUCAST-GPT-expert 706/862 (81.9%) but 158 (IQR 140–174) Sensitivity/specificity prediction 95.4%/69.23%, 96.9%/86.3%, 100%/98.8%, Non-customized GPT-4 could interpret 169/862 (19.6%) categories, 137/169 (81.1%) agreed diagnostics. was 85 72–105) Microbiologists higher shorter argumentations GPT-agents.

The global rise in mental disorders, particularly workplaces, necessitated innovative and scalable solutions for delivering therapy. Large Language Model (LLM)-based health chatbots have rapidly emerged as a promising tool overcoming the time, cost, accessibility constraints often associated with traditional However, LLM-based are their nascency, significant opportunities to enhance capabilities operate within organizational contexts. To this end, research seeks examine role development of LLMs over past half-decade. Through our review, we identified 50 health-related chatbots, including 22 models targeting general health, depression, anxiety, stress, suicide ideation. These primarily used emotional support guidance but lack specifically designed workplace where such issues increasingly prevalent. review covers development, applications, evaluation, ethical concerns, integration services, LLM-as-a-Service, various other business implications settings. We provide illustration how approaches could overcome limitations also offer system that help facilitate systematic evaluation chatbots. suggestions future tailored needs.
