Developing validity arguments for artificial intelligence-based assessment: Balancing affordances and threats

Background Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly used to generate, score and interpret educational assessment, yet these applications are being adopted in a largely unregulated environment. This creates a paradox: Whereas AI systems used in clinical care are subject to formal scrutiny for safety, performance and monitoring, AI systems used to inform consequential decisions about learner progression and future clinical practice are not. Existing validity frameworks remain useful but may not fully account f…

Not quite eye to A.I.: student and teacher perspectives on the use of generative artificial intelligence in the writing process

Abstract Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) can be used to author academic texts at a similar level to what humans are capable of, causing concern about its misuse in education. Addressing the role of GenAI in teaching and learning has become an urgent task. This study reports the results of a survey comparing educators’ (n = 68) and university students’ (n = 158) perceptions on the appropriate use of GenAI in the writing process. The survey included representations of user prompts and output from ChatGP…

Hands-on Artificial Intelligence Education for Radiology Residents: A Three-year Feasibility and Curriculum Implementation Study

Rationale and objectives Artificial intelligence (AI) has rapidly transformed radiology practice, yet structured and practical AI education remains inconsistently integrated into radiology residency training. We developed and implemented a hands-on AI curriculum designed to integrate core computational principles with clinically relevant imaging applications. This study describes the curriculum design and evaluates its feasibility, reproducibility, and preliminary educational outcomes over three consecutive year…

I’m a father of three who studies the impact of artificial intelligence: this is what parents need to know about AI

When I was growing up, my dad and I often talked about a story we wanted to write together. It was called “The Day Nobody Went to Disneyland”. One day, the story goes, the weather is so perfect that everyone in the world decides to stay away from Disneyland because they expect it to be far too busy. But my dad, who has the same thought as them, sees the disappointment on my face that morning – and decides to risk it. We set off. And when we arrive, the park is completely empty. Nobody else was brave enough to vi…

The AI generation gap: Are Gen Z students more interested in adopting generative AI such as ChatGPT in teaching and learning than their Gen X and millennial generation teachers?

Abstract This study aimed to explore the experiences, perceptions, knowledge, concerns, and intentions of Generation Z (Gen Z) students with Generation X (Gen X) and Generation Y (Gen Y) teachers regarding the use of generative AI (GenAI) in higher education. A sample of students and teachers were recruited to investigate the above using a survey consisting of both open and closed questions. The findings showed that Gen Z participants were generally optimistic about the potential benefits of GenAI, including enh…

Organ-at-risk contouring education in the era of AI-assisted practice: Insights from an Australian undergraduate radiation therapy program

Introduction The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) tools into radiation therapy workflows offers significant opportunities to improve efficiency by automating tasks such as contouring organs at risk (OARs). However, this also raises concerns regarding future practitioners' ability to critically evaluate auto-generated contours. This educational perspective examines how OAR contouring education can be integrated into undergraduate radiation therapy programs to support the development of foundational con…

Simulating Reality and Transforming Endoscopic Education-Lessons from Esophageal Dilation

Although endoscopic training has traditionally relied on mentorship and procedural volume to assess proficiency, the major gastroenterology societies have increasingly adopted competency-based assessment tools, including the Assessment of Competency in Endoscopy (ACE) and Direct Observation of Procedural Skills (DOPS), to provide a more objective evaluation of technical and cognitive skills. Despite these advances, mentor-based assessment remains susceptible to subjectivity. Emerging technologies such as simulat…

We must reject any notion of AI consciousness | Letters

Anil Seth is right to point out that to overestimate artificial intelligence is to underestimate ourselves (Once again we are told AI may be conscious – I study consciousness, and I have my doubts, 15 July). But he is wrong only to have doubts about whether AI systems like Claude may become conscious. He should be certain, and should say so more forcefully. It’s not like anything to be Claude, just as it’s not like anything to be a washing machine. An academic education is not required to realise that, common se…
