Objective:

To evaluate the 'DeepSeek effect' on self-reported GAI competency, integration into clinical practice, and organized training before and after the model's introduction.

Approach:

Key Findings:

• Self-reported GAI utilization increased from 64.7% to 94.1% after DeepSeek's launch (p < 0.001).
• Engagement in formal GAI training remained low (13.2% vs. 13.7%, p = 0.84).
• Fewer than 30% of trained physicians completed structured training, linked to improved self-reported competence (AOR = 22.2, p = 0.021).
• Physicians prioritized critical integration skills over basic technical proficiency (OR = 16.3, p < 0.001).

Interpretation:

The 'DeepSeek effect' led to increased GAI adoption but highlighted a significant gap in integration and self-assessed professional proficiency.

Limitations:

• The study did not assess comprehensive institutional-level integration.
• The findings are based on self-reported data, which may introduce bias.

Conclusion:

The findings indicate a gap between GAI adoption and integration in clinical practice.
