Abstract

The objective of this scoping review is to summarize the available literature on the use of AI in pharmacy education and identify gaps where additional research is needed.This scoping review identified seven studies specifically addressing the use of AI in pharmacy education. Of those seven studies, five focused on AI usage in the context of teaching and learning, one on the prediction of academic performance for admissions, and the final study focused on using AI text generation to elucidate the benefits and limitations of ChatGPT use in pharmacy education.There are currently a limited number of available publications that describe AI use in pharmacy education. Several challenges exist regarding the use of AI in pharmacy education, including the need for faculty expertise and time, limited generalizability of tools, limited outcomes data, and several legal and ethical concerns. As AI use increases and implementation becomes more standardized, opportunities will be created for the inclusion of AI in pharmacy education.Copyright © 2023. Published by Elsevier Inc.
