Beyond ChatGPT: Next Generation AI Technologies
Artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing emergency medicine, offering tools to elevate clinical practice. During this webinar, the speakers introduce four groundbreaking AI technologies - agentic systems, advanced language models, multimodal AI, and retrieval augmented generation (RAG) - that are set to transform patient care. Learn how AI can assist in complex triage, detect sepsis earlier, and provide real-time access to tailored research. Additionally, the speakers address ethical considerations, integration challenges, and the future of AI in the emergency department. Whether you're a novice or a data enthusiast, leave with actionable strategies to enhance your practice, research, and teaching.
Learning Objective: Upon completion of this webinar, learners should be able to implement AI technologies and use them to enhance decision-making in clinical practice, research, and teaching.
