Background: ChatGPT is a large language model (LLM) based on artificial intelligence (AI) capable of responding in multiple languages and generating nuanced and highly complex responses. While ChatGPT holds promising applications in medical education, its limitations and potential risks cannot be ignored.Methods: A scoping review was conducted for English articles discussing ChatGPT in the context of medical education published after 2022. A literature search was performed using PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, and Web of Science databases, and information was extracted from the relevant studies that were ultimately included.Results: ChatGPT exhibits various potential applications in medical education, such as providing personalized learning plans and materials, creating clinical practice simulation scenarios, and assisting in writing articles. However, challenges associated with academic integrity, data accuracy, and potential harm to learning were also highlighted in the literature. The paper emphasizes certain recommendations for using ChatGPT, including the establishment of guidelines. Based on the review, 3 key research areas were proposed: cultivating the ability of medical students to use ChatGPT correctly, integrating ChatGPT into teaching activities and processes, and proposing standards for the use of AI by medical students.Conclusion: ChatGPT has the potential to transform medical education, but careful consideration is required for its full integration. To harness the full potential of ChatGPT in medical education, attention should not only be given to the capabilities of AI but also to its impact on students and teachers.

ChatGPT is one of the conversational AI tools that changed and still change the human life in different aspects wherein the academic and the scientific aspects seem to be affected more seriously. This paper, therefore, is an attempt to delve into some minutes of this influence in these two sensitive aspects. And this can be achieved through pinpoint its aggressions that are mainly caused by its capacities and limitations as far as scientific communication and studies are concerned. On its surface face, this AL seems to enrich scientific texts with clarity and coherence, to have a role in generation of new ideas and research methods, along with the dangers it creates to the honesty of academic efforts. The study, therefore, seems grim and pessimistic in this respect contrary to the immense praise and acceptance it receives at the universal level. It tries to call for a stricter human censorship over academic and scientific works to draw them away, as much as possible, from the injuries of this AI application. And to support this caution, it shows some of ChatGPT features and restrictions that turn it dangerous in the academic fields. And to be objective and accurate, the study refers to some of its positive aspects like its ability to help in creating coherence and clarity to scientific articles, research methods, and use in fighting plagiarism. As thus, the study highlights an urgent need for a necessary methods, restrictions, and strategies that can ensure a safe use of ChatGPT's advantages and avoiding its weaknesses whenever it is used in scientific writing.

“…ChatGPT is good at "interpreting clinical information" (Ho, Koussayer, & Sujka, 2023), giving full and correct answers to all questions that students of medicine may get at an examination, diagnosing complicated cases, and consulting on treatments. In the same vein, journals on medicine and nursing became the frontrunners who introduced a new stand on ChatGPT's participation in writing research.…”

Introduction: the JLE editors analyse the scope and depth of the subject area of ChatGPT and related topics based on the Scopus database. The Scopus statistics prove a skyrocketing rise in the number of publications in the field in question during 2023. The major alarming themes cover authorship and integrity related to AI-assisted writing, threats to educational practices, medicine, and malevolent uses of ChatGPT. Keywords Explained: the key terminology is defined, including generative pre-trained transformers (GPT); ChatGPT; artificial intelligence (AI); AI chatbots; natural language processing (NLP); large language models; Open AI; large language model (LLM). International Research on ChatGPT: as of September 24 2023, the Scopus database has indexed 1,935 publications, with “ChatGPT” in the title, abstract, or keywords. A skyrocketing rise in the number of research has been reported since the early days of 2023. 1,925 indexed publications out of 1,935 were published in 2023. Most of them came from the USA, India, the UK, and China. The number of documents indexed in the Scopus database as well as PubMed, arXiv and others are exponentially rising. ChatGPT in Education: the academic community has been actively discussing the challenges education will face in the era of ChatGPT in the context of the fundamental threats posed to the educational system. The latter include assessment procedures, information accuracy, and skill devaluation. As many complex technologies, generative pre-trained transformers are ambivalent in nature, providing a great potential for learning and education at large, including new approaches based on critical thinking and awareness of the pros and cons of AI. ChatGPT in Science: great prospects for text generation and improvements in language quality adjoin to dubious authorship and potentially inconsistent and erroneous parts in the AI-produced texts. Publishers and journals are working out new publishing policies, including publishing ethics towards AI-assisted or AI-improved submissions. Conclusion: JLE is planning to revise its editorial policy to address the new challenges from AI technologies. JLE editors welcome new submissions of research articles and reviews as well as special issues on ChatGPT and related themes, with potential applications of chatbots in education, innovative approaches to writing assignments, facilitating personalized learning, academic integrity issues related to AI-supported writing, etc. in focus.
