Better-performing LLMs show more aligned overall confidence levels. However, even the most accurate models still show minimal variation in confidence between right and wrong answers. This may limit their safe use in clinical settings. Addressing overconfidence could involve refining calibration methods, performing domain-specific fine-tuning, and involving human oversight when decisions carry high risks. Further research is needed to improve these strategies before broader clinical adoption of LLMs.
