Application of AI-Generated Content in Medical Education: Systematic Review of the Impact on Critical Thinking Abilities of Medical Students

AIGC technology application in medical education needs to carefully weigh the pros and cons. By optimizing the design and usage of AIGC tools and combining them with the guidance and supervision of educators, they can be transformed into powerful tools for promoting the development of critical thinking among medical students. Future research should further expand the scope of study, optimize research methods, pay attention to individual differences, track long-term effects, and deeply explore the influence of ethical and cultural factors to more comprehensively assess the application potential and challenges of AIGC technology in medical education.

Abstract

AIGC technology application in medical education needs to carefully weigh the pros and cons. By optimizing the design and usage of AIGC tools and combining them with the guidance and supervision of educators, they can be transformed into powerful tools for promoting the development of critical thinking among medical students. Future research should further expand the scope of study, optimize research methods, pay attention to individual differences, track long-term effects, and deeply explore the influence of ethical and cultural factors to more comprehensively assess the application potential and challenges of AIGC technology in medical education.
