ClinicalTrials.gov (U.S. National Library of Medicine). Trials counted in the month ClinicalTrials.gov first posted them. The U.S. government does not review or approve the safety and science of all studies listed. Matched by ClinicalTrials.gov's full-text search for artificial intelligence, machine learning, deep learning, large language models, ChatGPT and generative AI.

AI moving from the lab into studies with patients: diagnosis, imaging, triage and decision support. Every study here is registered with an ethics-reviewed protocol, which makes it a harder count than papers or press releases.
