Are We Ready to Integrate Artificial Intelligence Literacy into Medical School Curriculum: Students and Faculty Survey

EN BREF ...

"Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications to improve clinical decision making are becoming more integrated into healthcare delivery. To prepare medical professionals to use this technol- ogy, a number of publications have called for integrating AI teaching into medical curricula.1-7 The practice of medicine is moving from information driven to AI driven, enabling more interaction with patient care. In the near future, healthcare will be delivered with massive amounts of data from different sources and AI applications. Physicians will be responsible for overseeing this care managed by multiple healthcare teams with medicine and AI interactions. Medical education needs to prepare the workforce to be knowledgeable about AI applica- tions in order to process big data and integrate the results into patient care. Several concerns arise while thinking of what should be taught and how to prepare the physician workforce.8-10 First, what content should we include in medical schools’ curricu- lum? How specific should this content be and on what level of medical training? Should it be just knowledge-based, or should practicum be a part of it?" En bref issu de l'étude.
