Abstract
BACKGROUND: The competence of ChatGPT (Chat Generative Pre-Trained Transformer) in non-English languages is not well studied. OBJECTIVE: This study compared the performances of GPT-3.5 (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) and GPT-4 on the Japanese Medical Licensing Examination (JMLE) to evaluate the reliability of these models for clinical reasoning and medical knowledge in non-English languages. METHODS: This study used the default mode of ChatGPT, which is based on GPT-3.5; the GPT-4 model of ChatGPT Plus; and the 117th JMLE in 2023. A total of 254 questions were included in the final analysis, which were categorized into 3 types, namely general, clinical, and clinical sentence questions. RESULTS: The results indicated that GPT-4 outperformed GPT-3.5 in terms of accuracy, particularly for general, clinical, and clinical sentence questions. GPT-4 also performed better on difficult questions and specific disease questions. Furthermore, GPT-4 achieved the passing criteria for the JMLE, indicating its reliability for clinical reasoning and medical knowledge in non-English languages. CONCLUSIONS: GPT-4 could become a valuable tool for medical education and clinical support in non-English-speaking regions, such as Japan.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
