Applications and Challenges of Implementing Artificial Intelligence in Medical Education: Integrative Review

Since the advent of artificial intelligence (AI) in 1955, the applications of AI have increased over the years within a rapidly changing digital landscape where public expectations are on the rise, fed by social media, industry leaders, and medical practitioners. However, there has been little interest in AI in medical education until the last two decades, with only a recent increase in the number of publications and citations in the field. To our knowledge, thus far, a limited number of articles have discussed or reviewed the current use of AI in medical education.

This study aims to review the current applications of AI in medical education as well as the challenges of implementing AI in medical education.
