ChatGPT对医学教育模式改变的思考

Ever since its official launch, Chat Generative Pre-Trained Transformer, or ChatGPT, a natural language processing tool driven by artificial intelligence (AI) technology, has attracted much attention from the education community. ChatGPT can play an important role in the field of medical education, with its potential applications ranging from assisting teachers in designing individualized teaching scenarios to enhancing students' practical ability for solving clinical problems and improving teaching and research efficiency. With the developments in technology, it is inevitable that ChatGPT, or other generative AI models, will be thoroughly integrated in more and more medical contexts, which will further enhance the efficiency and quality of medical services and allow doctors to spend more time interacting with patients and implement personalized health management. Herein, we suggested that proactive reflections be made to figure out the best way to cultivate health professional in the context of New Medical Education, to help more medical professionals enhance their understanding of developments in artificial intelligence, and to make preparations for the challenges that will emerge in the new round of technological revolution. Medical educators should focus on guiding students to make proper use of AI tools in the appropriate context, thereby prevening abuse or overreliance caused by a lack of discrimating ability. Teachers should focus on helping medical students make improvements in clinical reasoning skills, self-directed learning, and clinical practical skills. Teachers should stress the importance for medical students to understand the philosophical implications of the mind-body unity concept, holistic medical thinking, and systematic medical thinking. It is important to enhance medical students' humanistic qualities, cultivate their empathy and communication skills, and continually enhance their ability to meet the requirements of individualized precision diagnosis and treatment so that they will better adapt to the future developments in medicine.
