Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI), such as generative AI and large language models (LLMs), have generated significant excitement about the potential of AI to revolutionize our lives, work, and interaction with technology. This article explores the practical applications of LLMs, particularly ChatGPT, in the field of radiation oncology. We offer a guide on how radiation oncologists can interact with LLMs like ChatGPT in their routine clinical and administrative tasks, highlighting potential use cases of the present and future. We also highlight limitations and ethical considerations, including the current state of LLMs in decision making, protection of sensitive data, and the important role of human review of AI-generated content.
