This book provides medical students with a practical, non‐technical roadmap for understanding, applying, and leading generative AI in clinical practice. Despite explosive interest in AI, there is no accessible, clinically focused primer tailored to medical students without programming backgrounds. Educators and students need a resource that translates theory into actionable skills, crafting effective prompts, interpreting AI outputs, embedding tools into workflows, and upholding ethical and legal standards. By filling this gap, the book equips future physicians to use AI confidently and safely at the bedside and in documentation, lead pilot projects and quality-improvement initiatives, navigate certification, research, and career development in digital health. In short, it transforms generative AI from a black-box novelty into a dependable clinical partner, fulfilling a critical educational need at the intersection of medicine and technology. The text begins by demystifying core AI concepts, transformers, self‐attention, NLP, CNNs, and Retrieval‐Augmented Generation. It then moves through hands‐on chapters on securing stakeholder buy-in, prompt engineering, error management, and quality-improvement cycles. A capstone “AI Journal Club” and simulation exercises reinforce learning in real-world vignettes, while later chapters guide students through ethics, research, collaboration, career pathways, and a SMART-goal–driven lifelong learning plan. This is an ideal guide for all medical students interested in integrating generative AI into their career.
