Description

Fulin Pu leads a 2026 study rating five large language models as teachers for parents facing pediatric anesthesia, anesthesia care for children during surgery. Such models are popular but unvalidated for this high-risk topic. Experts drafted thirty-three common parental questions and put them to five named models in December 2025, then scored the answers blind for accuracy, reliability, and readability.

All five models scored above ninety percent on clinical accuracy, and one reached full marks in this sample. Still, unsafe content appeared in a small share of answers from three models, and invented content appeared in all but one. High average accuracy does not erase safety risk, the study shows, so clinical use needs care and checking.
