Benchmarking Off-the-Shelf Multimodal AI Models Against Dermatologists on Patient-Captured Skin Images

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 21, 2026 · UTC

Artificial intelligence (AI) has advanced at a rapid pace in recent years. Initially, breakthroughs in large language models caught widespread attention. However, recent generations of frontier AI models have adopted multimodal capabilities as a first class citizen, with vision capabilities being central to that. In this paper, we evaluate three recently released models on the task of diagnosing dermatological conditions from patient-submitted images. The models chosen are at the low to mid tier in terms of pricing and thus represent a floor on current AI capabilities, not a ceiling. We evalua
