DOI: https://doi.org/The teaching of critical thinking has always been a vital priority in medical education, as treating physicians must be able to pass through complex clinical situations. Critical thinking enables students to question information, evaluate evidence and pass appropriate judgments (Kaur & Mahajan, 2023). Nonetheless, the application of AI (e.g., ChatGPT) for medical education may bring opportunities and challenges. Whilst the use of AI can significantly informs learning, by providing a way to give rise of patterns, ideas and to enable new perspectives the over favouring of these tools risks undermining the very skills that educators are concerned about (Knopp et al., 2023) In this article, we discuss the potential for using ChatGPT to encourage critical thinking in medical students and highlight the centrality of preserving independence of thought.
