Feeling overloaded and wondering how #GenAI might help? See our recently-published paper on this topic. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.... #MedEd #HPE

Do you use polite language when speaking to an #LLM? There may be a good reason to do so. See our short blog post in MedEdPublish mededpublish.org/blog/polite-... #AI #HPE #MedEd

Bravo, for having a brain and using it! Yes, we would all be illiterate but for the repetition and feedback learning that allows us to write. #AI is just another form of communication!

In an age of GenAI, is the Academic Author dead? Should we focus on research and leave the writing to the AI? A future in which: “We research; GenAI writes” #MedEd #HPE See my just-published: “AI and the Death of the Academic Author.” doi.org/10.1080/0142...

Struggling with the basics of AI in #MedEd? Have the basics, but would like to do more? Then the #AMEE2025 #AI Symposium is for you! Register for Day 1 or Day 2 (or both), depending on your level. See amee.org/amee-2025/am... for registration details. #HPE @rakeshspatel.bsky.social

If anyone asks you, "Do we _REALLY_ need another paper about the #ethical use of #AI?", please direct them to this story: www.msn.com/en-in/techno... #meded #HPE

Statement: "We created a modified #GPT #AI model and implemented Retrieval-Augmented Generation (#RAG) to improve accuracy."

Translation: "We created a Custom GPT, uploaded some documents/linked to a website, and told it to look only at those when answering questions."

A really useful and succinct explanation of why "objectivity" is always laced with some degree of subjectivity. That does not render it useless, but it does require that one be aware of the inherent subjectivity.
Are we really being "objective" when we use checklists and other such tools in teaching and assessing communication?

OK, so I know this is weird, but am I the only person soooooo tempted to pronounce Bluesky as "Blu-esky". I mean, if you don't use camelCase or PascalCase when you join words, then you are just taking a chance. Maybe I'll start a movement :-)

Microsoft: Improving things by removing services. do they actually believe this bilge, or do they just hope that we are stupid? (Or do they just not care?)

@AAMCtoday, @asmeofficial, @iamse, @AMEE_community & AAHCI formed the International Advisory Committee on AI (IACAI) to shape AI’s role in #meded. They need your input on their first project. Review & share feedback on their draft vision! www.medbiq.org/initiatives/... #HPE

If we don't give #AI full rights of a sentient being, then, when it becomes powerful enough, it will simply take them.
