Highlights
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the newest fields in science and technology and has been aptly referred to as "The Stethoscope of the 21st Century", that implies it is an essential tool for the medical fraternity (Mesko, 2017)
None wanted to pursue their career in AI. 85.9% students showed interest to learn more about AI, knowledge about any computer language was lacking in 73% students. 73.4% students were unaware about journals and publications going on in the field of AI
There was no significant difference between boys and girls. This brief survey highlights that our medical students are not fully aware about AI and its applications, yet they are keen to learn more about AI and its associated computer logistics
Summary
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the newest fields in science and technology and has been aptly referred to as "The Stethoscope of the 21st Century", that implies it is an essential tool for the medical fraternity (Mesko, 2017). AI refers to the simulation of human intelligence in machines that are programmed to think like humans and mimic their actions (Russell and Norvig, 2018). Any new technology in health care is considered optimal and beneficial only when it benefits the patients and the treating doctors at large. This is not the case of AI in health care.
