Year: 2025

Abstract: The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into medical education presents numerous opportunities for innovation and efficiency. However, it also introduces significant ethical concerns, including data privacy, bias in algorithms, informed consent, and the protection of student data. This paper explores these challenges and emphasizes the need for ethical oversight in AI-driven medical education. The absence of dedicated ethics committees for educational AI applications complicates the establishment of ethical guidelines, leading to gaps in regulation. The study highlights potential solutions, such as creating specialized ethics committees, improving transparency in AI algorithms, and training medical educators and students in ethical AI use. Addressing these ethical concerns will be essential to harnessing the benefits of AI while minimizing risks in medical education.
