Simulation-Based Education in the Artificial Intelligence Era

Open access

Abstract

Simulation-based medical education (SBME) has been widely implemented in skill training in various clinical specialties. SBME has contributed not only to patient and medical safety but also to undergraduate and specialist education in the healthcare field. In this review, we discuss the challenges and future directions of SBME in the artificial intelligence (AI) era. While SBME fidelity or methods may become highly complicated in the AI era, the fact is that learners play a central role. As SBME and clinical education are complementary, mutual feedback and improvement are essential, especially in non-technical skill development. For the development of sustainable SBME in the clinical field in the AI era, continuous improvement is needed by academia, educators, and learners.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
