Healthcare workers with high openness to organizational change and positive attitudes toward AI reported lower technostress, which was linked to higher innovative work behavior.

A peer-reviewed study in Journal of Health Organization and Management examined how healthcare workers respond to AI-driven transformation. Using face-to-face surveys of 305 staff at a university hospital in Istanbul in early 2026, the authors tested whether openness to organizational change and attitudes toward AI affect innovative work behavior via technostress.

Technology-Enabled Interventions for Preventing and Responding to Elder Abuse: A Review of the Current Evidence: Although positive results for intermediate outcomes (e.g., service provision) were observed, evidence of alleviation of AOP occurrence and improvement of victim health remains limited.

This scoping review consolidates existing technology-enabled interventions for preventing and responding to abuse of older people (AOP). Studies reporting original, evaluated interventions in which technology delivered over 50% of the content or enabled coordination were included.

Statistically significant improvements were observed in 10 of 12 clinical domains, including core consultation skills such as comprehensive history taking, identifying key symptoms, adapting questioning and formulating a management plan, and differential diagnoses (all p Conclusion AI-simulated patients are feasible to implement and are associated with meaningful improvements in consultation confidence among CMTs.

Introduction Combat Medical Technicians (CMTs) are central to military primary care but have limited opportunity for clinical exposure. Simulated patients offer a controlled method to maintain clinical currency.

Evaluation of Differential Diagnosis of Odontogenic Lesions in Cone Beam Computed Tomography Images Using Radiomics-Based Machine Learning: The best single-segment performance was achieved in the left mandibular corpus with Logistic Regression (Accuracy=0.833, F1=0.832, AUC=0.958).

Objective This study aimed to evaluate the structural characteristics of mandibular alveolar bone in patients with Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and systemically healthy controls using panoramic radiography-based radiomic analysis combined with machine learning algorithms. Materials and methods A total of 225 panoramic radiographs (75 T1DM, 75 T2DM, 75 healthy controls) were retrospectively analyzed.

There is no standardized approach or consensus on AI competencies and ethical frameworks for undergraduate medical education, and no studies assessed impact on critical thinking or clinical reasoning.

A November 2025 scoping review in BMC Medical Education screened 3,238 records and included 310 publications on AI in undergraduate medical education from 2020 to April 2024, finding 52% of the included literature appeared in just eight months after the prior general review. Reported uses span autonomous tutoring, self-assessment, simulation-based learning, assessment generation and grading, clinical assessment, procedural skills evaluation, and predictive analytics in both basic and clinical courses.

For software engineers in early-stage integration, expected adoption drivers such as perceived usefulness, social factors, and personal innovativeness had less pronounced impact than conventional technology acceptance theories predict.

In a study published March 28 2024, researchers examined generative AI tool adoption among software engineers using surveys of 100 engineers and validation with 183 engineers, developing and testing the Human-AI Collaboration and Adaptation Framework.

Deepfakes that falsely announce surrender or truce declarations can place soldiers and civilians at greater risk and may constitute violations of international humanitarian law.

A peer-reviewed discussion published 5 November 2025 examines whether AI-generated deepfakes used to deceive an enemy during war comply with international humanitarian law. It notes commanders may seek tactical advantage by making opposing forces and civilian populations believe X when Y is true, including fabricated surrender or truce announcements.

AI systems can now compose classical pieces that closely resemble human compositions, making detection increasingly difficult.

A peer-reviewed study published November 10, 2025 tested LSTM and CNN models to classify classical music as AI-generated or human-composed using statistical pitch, velocity, and duration features extracted from MIDI files via beat-based segmentation. Trained on a dataset containing both types of compositions, the models were evaluated on primary and auxiliary test sets.
