The Dangers of ChatGPT in Medical School and Residency: A Concern for the Future of Medicine
Abstract:
As we navigate the rapidly evolving landscape of medical education, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) tools like ChatGPT has become increasingly prevalent. While we strongly advocate for leveraging technology to enhance medical practice, we are compelled to express our concerns regarding medical students’ and residents’ over-reliance on ChatGPT. This manuscript explores the risks associated with using ChatGPT in medical education, particularly the growing trend of students uploading images to the AI model without first developing basic interpretation skills.
