You've learned about AI models and applications. But how do the big names like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude actually fit into healthcare practice?
Each major AI assistant runs on specific "engine" models, and understanding this ecosystem helps you choose the right tool for patient care, research, or administrative tasks.

Which AI assistant have you used in your healthcare work?
ChatGPT, made by OpenAI, is widely used in healthcare settings. But here's the secret - it's powered by different versions of GPT models!
GPT-3.5, GPT-4, and newer versions like GPT-4o are the actual "brains" inside. ChatGPT is just the friendly interface wrapped around them.

Have you tried using ChatGPT for medical literature summaries or patient education materials?
Google's Gemini (formerly Bard) works the same way. It's powered by Google's own model family - also called Gemini!
They have Nano (for mobile devices), Pro (balanced power), Ultra (maximum capability), and Flash (super fast). Each serves different healthcare purposes.

Have you noticed Gemini integrated into Google Workspace tools used in your healthcare facility?
Claude, created by Anthropic, follows a poetic naming pattern. Its models are Haiku (fast and light), Sonnet (balanced), and Opus (most powerful).
Claude excels at handling very long documents - up to 200,000 words! This makes it perfect for analyzing lengthy medical records or research papers.

What would you use an AI for - quick clinical notes or comprehensive case analysis?
Here's something cool - these companies can upgrade the "engine" without changing the app!
ChatGPT might upgrade from GPT-4 to GPT-4.5, keeping the same chat interface. Most healthcare tools have a dropdown that lets you switch the model.
