Can artificial intelligence help with the development of generic clinical skills when breaking bad news? A quantitative evaluation
AI-generated content, when appropriately curated, can effectively support the teaching of sensitive communication skills, complementing traditional reflective learning methods. A hybrid model that integrates AI with human-facilitated discussions may offer a comprehensive and efficient approach to postgraduate medical education. Further research is warranted to ensure content quality, cultural and setting appropriateness, and to preserve trust in the supervisor-learner relationship.
