PICOT Question Development and Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) (3 points)

1. Using the template below, develop a PICOT (population, intervention, comparison, outcome, and time) question related to your assigned topic. See Chapter 4 in your textbook.

In ____________ (P), how does _________________________ (I), compared to _________________________ (C) affect __________________________________ (O) within _______________________ (T)?

2. Next, create a PICOT on ChatGPT using the same topic.

Follow the directions below once you reach the ChatGPT site.
- You can Sign Up or Login if you desire, or you can simply copy and paste the information needed into the search box.
- Take your group topic and ask ChatGPT to form a PICOT and clinical question for you.
Reflect on the question you created and the ones provided by ChatGTP. Which do you prefer and why? Are there parts of your question and the AI generated questions that you would like to blend together?
Write the PICOT question you would use moving forward for your research.
