I am writing to express my appreciation for the recently published article “Rise of the machines: trends and challenges of implementing AI in biomedical scientific writing”, by Fornalik et al. [1]. The manuscript explores the advancements, challenges, and ethical considerations of artificial intelligence (AI) in biomedical writing. Its discussion of AI’s capabilities, such as text generation, literature synthesis, and enhanced peer-review processes, is timely and thought-provoking.

This discussion resonates with key aspects of AI implementation that have emerged in recent literature. For instance, the author emphasizes the integration of ChatGPT and its potential role in transforming scientific communication. Similarly, the study identifies critical challenges like plagiarism detection and the risks of biased outputs, which echo broader concerns within the medical community [2]. The authors highlight the growing prevalence of ChatGPT as a generative AI tool, underscoring its ability to generate, paraphrase, and refine text effectively. Fornalik et al. [1] discuss tools like Penelope.ai, which streamline manuscript reviews, check compliance with journal standards, and elaborate on AI’s limitations in maintaining the scientific rigor and ethics required for publishing [3].

Beyond the manuscript, the findings align with others’ contributions to AI in otolaryngology. The ethical challenges of integrating AI tools like ChatGPT into medical research and patient care were analyzed. These tools show potential in patient education and manuscript preparation [1, 3–6].

The study by Fornalik et al. [1] highlights the transformative potential of AI in biomedical scientific writing and its implications across various facets of healthcare and research. This perspective aligns with recent advancements in integrating AI into otolaryngology and auditory rehabilitation, where AI has demonstrated its capacity to enhance clinical and technological practices [1–3].

One significant intersection of AI and biomedical innovation lies in integrating neurotechnology and medical devices—particularly in auditory rehabilitation. Recent advancements have seen the application of AI algorithms in optimizing cochlear implant programming through adaptive learning models and neural network-based sound processing. These approaches enable real-time customization of auditory input based on patient-specific hearing profiles, leading to measurable improvements in speech perception and auditory comprehension. For instance, studies utilizing deep learning techniques have demonstrated up to a 25–30% improvement in word recognition scores among post-implantation users, especially in noisy environments [5, 7, 8].

Moreover, AI-powered mobile applications for auditory training now incorporate personalized feedback loops, voice recognition, and gamified exercises to engage users and enhance neuroplasticity. These tools not only offer accessible rehabilitation for remote or underserved populations but have also shown statistically significant gains in patient-reported listening effort and communication confidence. Similarly, telehealth platforms and AI-integrated social media applications provide continuous monitoring and adjustment, further reinforcing their practical utility. This convergence of AI and auditory healthcare directly complements the themes addressed by Fornalik et al. [1], particularly regarding AI’s role in streamlining clinical workflows, enhancing accessibility, and reinforcing patient-centered innovation in biomedical science [1, 9, 10].

Despite its promise, the implementation of AI in auditory healthcare faces limitations such as data privacy concerns, limited generalizability across diverse patient populations, and the need for clinician oversight to validate algorithmic decisions. Current models often rely on datasets that may not capture the complexity of real-world auditory disorders. Future advancements will likely focus on integrating multimodal AI systems with brain-computer interfaces and wearable devices to enable fully personalized, adaptive auditory rehabilitation solutions [11–13].

Furthermore, the application of generative AI tools in postoperative care highlights the value of AI in delivering accurate, timely, and comprehensible information to patients. This capability is particularly impactful in resource-limited settings, where traditional healthcare access may be constrained. The emphasis on transparency and ethical issues in AI usage, as discussed by Fornalik et al. [1], aligns with these real-world applications, reinforcing the need for robust guidelines to ensure AI’s reliability and integrity [1, 5].

These studies underscore AI’s role as a catalyst for innovation in clinical practice and scientific communication. The themes explored by Fornalik et al. [1] resonate strongly with advancements in auditory healthcare, reinforcing the importance of collaboration and ethical oversight to fully realize the potential of AI-driven technologies in medicine and research.

Interdisciplinary collaboration among clinicians, researchers, ethicists, and technologists is essential to ensure ethical implementation and maximize AI’s benefits. Such collaboration will foster the development of responsible frameworks that support innovation while safeguarding patient welfare and scientific integrity [14]. Table 1 shows AI’s diverse and evolving applications in auditory healthcare and scientific communication, emphasizing its transformative impact on clinical decision-making, remote rehabilitation, manuscript development, and ethical innovation.

Thank you for bringing this essential discussion to light. I hope my reflections and additional insights contribute to the ongoing dialogue on the responsible and innovative use of AI in scientific communication.
