= 0.13).Conclusions: AI models given clinical data alongside images matched or exceeded specialist-level performance for pediatric exanthems. Accuracy varied by disease; failures clustered in conditions that require contextual reasoning. Physician oversight remains necessary where AI accuracy is lowest. What is Known • Childhood exanthematous diseases pose significant diagnostic challenges due to their overlapping clinical presentations. • Artificial intelligence models are becoming increasingly proficient in accurately diagnosing these conditions. What is New • In this diagnostic accuracy study of 61 cases evaluated by 263 clinicians and 3 artificial intelligence models, ChatGPT (86.9%) and Gemini (82.0%) exceeded the 95% CI upper bound of the specialist population median. Disease-level accuracy ranged from 0 to 100% across models • Artificial intelligence models given clinical data alongside images can match or exceed specialist-level accuracy for common pediatric exanthems, but failures in context-dependent diagnoses require physician oversight.
