"After advertising our initiative of implementing a private instance of ChatGPT to the workforce, an introductory webinar was conducted to educate interested employees about GenAI models and their responsible use. This webinar attracted 560 participants, demonstrating the high level of interest in this technology. All employees were then invited to apply for access to our HIPAA compliant, private GenAI studio and experiment with data not allowed within the public instance, such as patient information and intellectual property."
"From a technological perspective, 111 960 167 tokens (the atomic unit of large language models) were used in the first 6 months of implementation, costing the institution about $4200. On average, there were 60 users/week submitting about 671 queries/week. There were 34 new users per week on average. The highest number of new users occurred during the week of June 5, shortly after our introductory webinar, with another spike of new users in August around our first enterprise-wide prompt-a-thon and the following in December after subsequent prompt-a-thons (see Figure 2). These patterns highlight how influential educational programs were in catalyzing adoption within the health system...."
"When asked what they would use GenAI tools for if available, most stated they would frequently use it for writing documents, editing, summarizing information, and analyzing data. However, they did not perceive that using GenAI for these tasks would reduce the importance of maintaining their own skills in these areas, indicating that their experience suggested that GenAI could not automate these tasks. When asked about factors that would increase or decrease how frequently they use GenAI tools, participants indicated that public release of more capable AI tools, permanent access to the GenAI studio at NYULH, positive reports from colleagues, and studies showing productivity benefits of using AI tools would increase their usage."
