Abstract

Medical education has ventured into a new arena of computer-assisted teaching powered by artificial intelligence (AI). In medical institutions, AI can serve as an intelligent tool facilitating the decision-making process effectively. AI can enhance teaching by assisting in developing new strategies for educators. Similarly, students also benefit from intelligent systems playing the role of competent teachers. Thus, AI-integrated medical education paves new opportunities for advanced teaching and learning experiences and improved outcomes. On the other hand, optical mark recognition and automated scoring are ways AI can also transform into a real-time assessor and evaluator in medical education. This review summarizes the AI tools and their application in medical teaching or learning, assessment, and administrative support. This article can aid medical institutes in planning and implementing AI according to the needs of the educators.

AI snapshot

Written from the paper’s full text.

TL;DR

This narrative review summarizes AI tools and applications across medical education, including teaching/learning, assessment, research, and administration. It argues AI can personalize learning, automate assessment, and improve administrative efficiency, while noting data, bias, and workforce concerns.

Key findings

  • AI can influence student learning through direct teaching, support teaching, and empowering the learner; subthemes include chatbots, intelligent tutoring systems, virtual patients, gamification, and adaptive learning systems.
  • AI assessment applications include optical mark recognition, automated essay scoring, quizzing, virtual reality, simulation assessment, and assessment of diagnostic, interpretation, prescription-writing, and emergency-response skills.
  • Administrative uses include recruitment/admissions, curriculum design and review, staff/student records, financial aid, feedback management, telemedicine, distance education, virtual inquiry systems, budgeting/resource allocation, and campus safety.
  • The paper cites an estimate that AI in healthcare could save a net sum of 200 to 360 billion USD per year if tapped adequately in the United States alone.

Methods

  • Narrative review summarizing AI tools and their application in medical teaching or learning, assessment, research, and administrative support.
  • No systematic search strategy, databases, inclusion/exclusion criteria, or sample are stated in the paper.
  • Main analysis is a categorical description of AI tools by use and stakeholder, including students, faculty, researchers, and administrators.

Limitations

  • Stated in the paper: machine learning and deep learning need enormous datasets; sharing data between medical institutes is challenging due to organizational resistance, data privacy, and security concerns; AI models may produce biased outcomes; and staff may fear replacement by AI.
  • Evident from the text: as a narrative review, it lacks a systematic search and empirical evaluation, and many claims are supported by cited reviews or commentary rather than primary effectiveness studies.

  • The importance of equipping future doctors with key AI skills has increased.

    “Moreover, the importance of equipping future doctors with key AI skills has increased, leading to efforts to incorporate AI literacy into undergraduate medical education (UGME) [2–4].”

    From Artificial intelligence in undergraduate medical education: an updated scoping review (2025) · cites this paper as [3]

    The Introduction and background (page unavailable) says that creating awareness of AI tools among medical students is essential and that AI has been adopted by several medical institutions. It does not specifically say that the importance of equipping future doctors with AI skills has increased or that this has led to efforts to incorporate AI literacy into undergraduate medical education. (LLM, conf=0.78)

  • AI can support personalized, AI-driven training for clinicians.

    “One promising example is the use of AI to support personalized, AI-driven training for clinicians—both in clinical education and in understanding AI-related concepts [44].”

    From Implementing Artificial Intelligence in Critical Care Medicine: a consensus of 22. (2025) · cites this paper as [44]

    The Review (page unavailable) describes AI systems that tailor medical teaching and clinical-case assessments to a learner’s knowledge level, supporting personalized clinical education. It does not describe personalized training for clinicians in understanding AI-related concepts; its discussion of AI awareness is not such a training example. (LLM, conf=0.86)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • Study participants did not believe AI would replace human teachers but believed that the role of the teacher may change.

    “In addition, study participants did not believe AI would replace human teachers [49] but that the role of the teacher may change [3].”

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.

Claims read by deepseek-v4.1-flash under definition version 3 (extract-v3) on 2026-10-10.

Classified by jev-1.13-20260917 (gold-guideline-v0.2) on 2026-10-10.

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.
