Two occupational medicine specialists\/pulmonologists independently evaluated responses (September 15\u201330, 2025) for reliability, quality, and readability using modified DISCERN, Global Quality Scale, and readability indices.

Copilot scored significantly higher than ChatGPT and Gemini (p\u2009=\u20090.014). GQS scores were similar across models (p\u2009=\u20090.102), with median scores of 4 (3\u20135) for ChatGPT and Copilot and 4 (2\u20135) for Gemini.
