About the tool
The opportunities for AI tools to transform primary care and reduce clinician burnout are immense. Tools for all areas primary care provision are available or in development, ranging from clinical workflow, diagnosis, management, treatment, and beyond. Amid the hype, private companies are rushing to sell solutions.
The aims of the CEP’s AI Learning Centre are to:
- Promote foundational AI literacy to empower practitioners to make informed choices about the safe and effective use of AI tools in clinical practice.
- Provide trusted, practical information to help Ontario’s primary care practitioners critically assess and make informed decisions about using AI in clinical practice, focusing on risk and safety.
- Monitor AI in primary care in Ontario, keeping practitioners updated with critical information and insights as they develop, highlighting potential safety concerns and emerging evidence.
- Fill information gaps, demystify concepts, and debunk misconceptions, where possible, to support safe integration of AI in primary care.
- Promote complementary resources and partner with other trusted organizations to align messaging and reduce noise in the system.
Building off the success of the COVID-19 Resource Centre and its proven rapid knowledge translation approach, the AI Learning Centre will prioritize collaboration with external partners and experts to develop responsive, iterative guidance for primary care clinicians while reducing duplication and noise in the system.
