  1. According to the guide, which type of credit are US physicians most often required to earn for CME?
    • Continuing education units issued by any employer
    • AMA PRA Category 1 Credit
    • Self-reported reading hours with no provider
    • Credit issued directly by an AI chatbot
  2. Which sequence best describes point-of-care learning as an accredited CME format?
    • Attend a live lecture, then take a quiz
    • Pass a proctored board examination
    • Read a journal cover to cover each month
    • Look up the answer to a real clinical question, apply it and document the learning
  3. Why might an AI tool give an outdated answer about a clinical guideline?
    • The model has a training cutoff, and retrieval may surface an older guideline version
    • AI tools can never read guidelines
    • Guidelines are never revised
    • Accreditors block access to current guidelines
  4. An education team uses a language model to draft practice questions for an accredited activity. What must happen before those questions count toward CME?
    • Nothing, since the model is trained on medical text
    • The vendor must certify the model
    • Qualified human review for content validity and independence from commercial influence
    • Each question must be translated into three languages
  5. In a retrieval-augmented literature tool, what happens before the answer is generated?
    • The model deletes outdated articles from the internet
    • The system retrieves the most relevant passages from its indexed guidelines and articles
    • A physician writes the answer by hand
    • The accredited provider approves the question
  6. An AI summary applies a trial's finding to all adults, but the trial enrolled only patients over 75. Which failure mode does the guide describe here?
    • A retrieved passage lacked the context that limits it, such as the study population
    • The tool refused to answer
    • The citation linked to a nonexistent website
    • The model produced a correct and complete answer
  7. Why does the guide say that reading an AI summary is not the same as learning for credit?
    • AI summaries are always too long
    • Credit can only be earned in person
    • Summaries are copyrighted
    • Credit formats ask the clinician to reflect on how the information changed practice
  8. When a clinician earns credit after using an AI-based reference tool, who generally awards that credit?
    • The AI model itself
    • The patient
    • An accredited provider, often working with the tool's company
    • Any colleague who reviews the search
