Abstract

BACKGROUND: The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into healthcare is rapidly advancing, with profound implications for medical practice. However, a gap exists in formal AI education for pre-medical students. This study evaluates the effectiveness of the AI in Medicine Association (AIM), an extracurricular program designed to equip pre-medical students with foundational AI knowledge.
