Effective Engagement With AI Is the Only Path Forward for Clinician-Educators

Abstract

There is broad agreement that the cognitive abilities of generative artificial intelligence (GAI) technologies are existential opportunities for medical education, threatening to reshape both the clinical practice environment and the nature of learning. Recent improvements in the abilities of these models-most notably so-called reasoning models, which can perform many cognitive tasks with equal or better performance compared to humans-outpace the abilities of both medical schools, professional societies, and consensus organizations to adapt. In this commentary, the authors propose that this fact should compel individual clinician-educators to become early adopters and actively engage with GAI technologies, with their learners, patients, and educational communities, and provide practical strategies for engagement.
