A qualitative survey on perception of medical students on the use of large language models for educational purposes

Abstract

The study demonstrates the student's perspective on the role of large language models (LLM)-based chatbots in medical education. Students' responses generated three major themes of various usage scenarios, how LLMs can enhance learning, and the ethical considerations in the integration of LLMs into medical curricula. By identifying both the benefits and limitations of LLMs in medical education, the study offers insights for educators and policymakers to navigate the complexities of LLM in educational settings.
