Use of Artificial Intelligence Among Medical Students in Tbilisi and Its Effects on Education

A cross-sectional study involving 202 medical students studying at various universities in Tbilisi, Georgia, examined their artificial intelligence usage habits, educational benefits, and the challenges encountered. According to data collected via a 31-item online survey between May 8, 2025, and February 4, 2026, regular use of artificial intelligence increases students' academic performance, exam preparation, and study efficiency.

The research findings revealed that despite students' concerns regarding reliability, ethics, and over-reliance, the adoption rate of artificial intelligence is high. Statistical analyses showed that students' self-confidence in using artificial intelligence is the most significant determinant supporting the formal integration of these tools into the medical curriculum.
