Assessing ChatGPT’s Capability as a New Age Standardized Patient: Qualitative Study
ChatGPT can effectively augment traditional SPs in medical education, offering accessible, flexible practice opportunities. However, it cannot fully replace human SPs due to limitations in verisimilitude and prompt engineering challenges. Integrating prompt engineering into medical curricula and continuous advancements in AI are recommended to enhance the use of virtual SPs.
