We will (1) learn together as a community, (2) engage and experiment with generative AI, and (3) co-construct a repository of prompts for medical and health professions educators. On this page you will find your Promptathon Toolkit. We invite you to use the quick links to skip to sections on the page or scroll through the content step by step.
Be Curious. Have Fun. Experiment Wisely.
Do not submit any protected data to the generative AI service. This includes: patient data, personal data, research data, student work
Be critical of the output regards factual accuracy, bias, and also how it affects narratives about teaching and learning. Be the human in the loop!
It's an experimental setting. As such we do not know what the results will be, and expect both success and failure.
Reminder: Follow your institutional guidelines (click here for Karolinska Institutet & Mayo Clinic guidelines).
We are here to learn - none of us are experts. Remind yourself of the acronym FAIL - First Attempt in Learning!

Free version (GPT 3.5 model)
Only text.
Faster processing
Can process around 3000 words
Paid version (GPT 4 model)
Can interpret text, images, code and can search the web. Supports plugins.
Generally higher accuracy
Can cope with much longer
Has an app which supports the use of the camera and speech (if you activate it)
Based upon GPT4 and Dall-E
Supports text and images both as inputs and outputs. Can perform web searches.
Shorter inputs only (4,000 characters)
Your institution may have an Enterprise licence for Bing Chat Enterprise, which sandboxes your data (check for the green 'Protected' or 'Skyddad' label at the top of the chat)
A touch less tweakable than ChatGPT, but does have a useful 'write' mode with presents if you open it with the browser (click on the Bing 'B' at the top-right of the Edge browser)
Requires Microsoft Edge
Has an app which supports the use of the camera
Only text
Tweaked for less harmful, more consistutional outputs (according to the developer)
Large context window
As you get started prompting, we offer you:
Focus: Use the Focus Your Prompting document (on the left) to consider scenarios/challenges in which you may use generative AI in medical and health professions education.
Explore: Review sample prompt libraries (below) to get generate ideas.
Co-Create: The Padlet AI Prompting Message Board (below) is a space to post prompts you would like to further refine with colleagues and/or share a photo to celebrate your efforts.
NOTE: We will be sharing/disseminating outcomes and outputs from this promptathon to the broad medical and health professions education community. Information entered into this form will be shared in aggregate form only.
