‘I, robot, can help you’. Applications of Generative Artificial Intelligence in RANZCP psychiatry training

摘要

ObjectiveThe growing availability and sophistication of online generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools, such as ChatGPT, necessitates an exploration of their applications within the RANZCP Fellowship Training Program. This article examines how GenAI could be integrated into various areas, including trainee selection, workplace-based assessments, the Scholarly Project (SP), and the Psychotherapy Written Case (PWC). While GenAI offers benefits, trainees must understand that there are limitations on how these can be used with patient data. They should also be aware of the ethical and legal considerations surrounding the use of purpose-built medical scribe programs. For this paper, ChatGPT was employed to enhance language quality, without contributing to content generation.ConclusionThe accessibility and ease of use of GenAI present both opportunities and challenges. Given the limitations of AI detection software, the RANZCP will need to adapt to GenAI rather than attempt to regulate its use. Revisions to assessment methods, particularly those relying on written assignments, will be needed. As this is a rapidly evolving field, training programs should be continually updated to remain relevant.
