Description

Julia Siebielec and Filip Raciborski offer a 2026 assessment of vaccine information accuracy across four large language models. ChatGPT, Copilot, DeepSeek, and Gemini each answered ninety multiple-choice questions drawn from a government vaccine website. Data were collected in March 2026. Two open questions probed sources and the pros and cons of universal vaccination.

Gemini scored highest, with a correct share of 0.98 across the test set. ChatGPT scored lowest at 0.86 in the same test. Results differed significantly between models. On open questions, all named suitable information sources. All cited herd immunity as an advantage and adverse reactions as a disadvantage. Answers were correct but thin. The authors judge the models a limited information source on their own.
