Résumé
Chat-based Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools, such as ChatGPT A cross-sectional online survey was conducted from March to April 2024 among undergraduate pharmacy students, selected through random sampling. Student knowledge was categorised as good or poor while perception was grouped into positive or negative. Data analysis was conducted using Statistical Product and Service Solutions version 27. A total of 252 students participated in this study with the majority being female (72.2%). Most students (88%, n = 222) were familiar with chat-based AI tools, with ChatGPT Pharmacy students at ABUAD demonstrated good knowledge of chat-based AI tools and generally positive perceptions towards its use. The study underscores the need to integrate AI education into the pharmacy curriculum to address knowledge gaps and better prepare students for future technological advancements.
