myAIpatient - OPPORTUNITY TO TRY OUT NEW DIGITAL TOOL
Dear Colleagues,
As founding members of Digital health and Artificial intelligence SIG, we are evaluating "myAIpatient", an AI-simulated patient tool designed to enhance medical education through interactive and realistic patient scenarios.
Before completing our short (~3 min) survey, please explore the tool by completing at least one scenario on "myaipatient" application from the website at: https://myaipatient.com/.
It will take only 10 minutes (but you are free to try as many scenarios as you want) and give you hands-on experience to the cutting-edge technology of the future of medical education. This tool is established by our own members, therefore it will provide valuable feedback on usability, functionality, and clinical relevance.
Your input will be very valuable for us. And it will be anonymous, voluntary, and crucial for improving this tool.
Thank you for helping us advance medical education!
Best regards,
Founding members of Digital Health and AI SIG
