  • The Use of AI in Diagnosing and Treating Medical Ailments: A Critical Examination

    Overview
    A study reported in RadiologyLinks to an external site.states that “…28% of normal posteroanterior chest radiographs, or 7.8% of all radiographs, could be potentially safely automated by an artificial intelligence tool.” Wow! Would you trust AI to diagnose or suggest treatment for a malady suffered by you or a loved one? In this assignment, you consider that question.
    Instructions
    Imagine that you have a physical or mental malady, and don’t have access to a medical professional but you want to actively address the issue.
    Respond to the following in a 1-2 page Word document:
    Consider your chosen ailment and describe a specific AI-related tool designed to address it and how it works. If there is no direct relationship, choose a tangential one. Cite 2 specific examples of its uses.
    Prompt a chatbot to diagnose and suggest treatment for the affliction. Discuss your confidence in a chatbot diagnosis or treatment of the malady. Support your assessment with 4 academic or professional resources.
    Submit your work.

  • “Fact-Checking in the Age of AI and Social Media”

    Overview
    Being able to critically assess media, data, and the written word is becoming an essential skill in the age of AI and social media. In this assignment, you have a chatbot fact-check itself and you will in turn fact-check the fact-check. Your goal? – generating trusted information.
    Preparation
    Part 1 Prep: Consider a Question of Interest
    Consider a profound question or a piece of advice upon which you might seek (remember, it should be appropriate for assignment submission) counsel or information. It will be referred to as “YOUR QUESTION”; in the prompt below.
    Part 2 Prep: Prepare the Fact-Check Pattern Prompt
    The Fact-Check List Pattern is a structure used to present information or arguments in a comprehensive and organized manner, often in the context of evaluating the validity of a claim, statement, or argument. This pattern is commonly employed in journalism, research, debate, and discussions where accuracy and credibility are important.
    In the instructions below you will use a Fact-Check Pattern prompt with YOUR QUESTION to conduct an initial fact-check on YOUR QUESTION, The text must be transcribed into the chatbot EXACTLY as written as follows:
    When you output the response to my next prompt, generate a set of facts that are contained in the output. The set of facts should be inserted at the end of the output. The set of facts should be the fundamental facts that could undermine the truthfulness of the output if any of them are incorrect. YOUR QUESTION.
    Instructions
    Step 1: Run the Fact-Check List Pattern With Your Prompt in a Chatbot
    Paste that whole prompt (as constructed in the word processor in the Preparation section) into the message box and send it. The AI will return a list of Fundamental Facts with a short explanation of each. Select 2 of the fundamental facts returned and paste them into a Word document that you will use to submit this assignment.
    Step 2: Google Your Query
    Enter 2 of the Fundamental Facts into a search engine (separately) and perform a search to help confirm or reject each of the facts that the chatbot presented to you. This may require refinements of your search before you formulate your opinions.
    Step 3: Compare the Responses
    Compare the Chatbot facts to the information returned from the search. Note major similarities or differences in the facts they provide. Make sure to cite your supporting resources.
    Step 4: Additional Checks
    Describe at least 2 additional actions that you could take to effectively evaluate the information that you received from the chatbot. You might even want to consider clues in the information returned by the chatbot. Your goal is to arrive at a properly informed decision or opinion. Complete these additional actions.
    Explain how you synthesized your research to arrive at an informed conclusion and how comfortable you are with that conclusion.

    Touchstones are projects that illustrate your comprehension of the course material, help you refine skills, and demonstrate application of knowledge. You can work on a Touchstone anytime, but you must pass this unit’s assessments before you submit it. Once you’ve submitted a Touchstone, it will be graded and counted toward your final course score.
    Touchstone 4: Final Java Project
    ASSIGNMENT: For this Touchstone, you will learn how to effectively plan, design, develop, and test an original program of your choosing. This program is your choice and it can be as complex as you wish. The goal is to start with an idea for your program and then step through the process of most phases of the development lifecycle to turn your idea into an actual program. This includes planning out the algorithm using pseudocode, coding your program using everything you learned from Units 1-3, and finally, testing and debugging your program to make sure it fulfills your intended purpose. You will fill out a journal (template link below) which has five sections that correspond to the five steps you will complete for your final project. Use this template to write your journal responses for each section of the project. When you have finished, you will submit this journal as a Word .doc/docx.
    Java Journal Template
    The following Example Java Journal Submission will be helpful to you as you work on this assignment and shows acceptable submissions for each entry.
    Example Java Journal Submission
    Being able to create your own program can be beneficial in any career field. Anything that can be programmed or automated in any industry could make your work a lot easier. Even as a hobby, it can give you a reference point to have a better understanding of how to deal with common issues. Using basic Java to automate menial tasks can save you time and money! Whether you were in this class to learn programming at a professional level or if it’s just for fun, you will benefit from learning coding as a foundation of your technical skills.
    In order to foster learning and growth, all work you submit must be newly written specifically for this course. Please note that you cannot use the same program used in a previous programming course. Any plagiarized or recycled work will result in a Plagiarism Detected alert. Review Touchstones: Academic Integrity Guidelines for more about plagiarism and the Plagiarism Detected alert. For guidance on the use of generative AI technology, review Ethical Standards and Appropriate Use of AI.
