Extraventricular Neurocytoma of the Posterior Fossa: A Case Report Written by ChatGPT.

ChatGPT (Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer) is the latest artificial intelligence (AI) tool that has taken the internet by storm. A large language model-based AI tool, ChatGPT is used to generate natural prose-like answers learning from a large database of text. A lot is being written and spoken about the future of academic writing using this tool.We attempt to generate a short case report of a brain tumour labelled extraventriuclar neurocytoma (EVN) which is a rare tumour of the central nervous system. When posed with a set of questions on this uncommon topic, ChatGPT did well with relevant but not very specific answers. Validation of the information is an issue like with most machine learning solutions. This case report is an attempt to summarise EVN and its management. Q: Summarise extraventricular neurocytoma. ChatGPT: EVN is a rare and benign tumor that typically occurs in the brain. It often causes no symptoms, but as it grows, it can cause headaches, seizures, and changes in vision or balance. Surgery is usually curative, but there is a lack of studies to know the best treatment options. The prognosis is generally good with high rates of long-term survival and low rates of recurrence.
