Abstract
The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine has grown in recent decades, with deep neural networks demonstrating accuracies comparable to dermatologists when classifying melanoma, keratinocyte carcinomas, and other common skin conditions. 1 , 2 , 3 With the future possibility that AI will be integrated into dermatology practice, it is important to understand how patients view these possible changes. Although prior studies have shown that patients are open to the use of AI in the diagnosis of skin cancer, little is known about patients' trust and perception of AI accuracy in general dermatology. 4 , 5 This survey study aimed to gather opinions from a diverse dermatology patient population on AI use in dermatology and establish a specific accuracy at which patients would be comfortable receiving a diagnosis solely from an AI tool.
