Özet
As we are transitioning from the age of information to the age of
artificial intelligence, this study aims to explore the potential of
blockchain and Holochain technologies as solutions to the data privacy,
security, and integrity concerns in medical education, and to provide
standpoints of a medical education researcher for their use that also
minimize negative impacts regarding planetary health and climate change.
While these technologies offer promising solutions, their environmental
impact has not been discussed in the literature with regard to medical
education. This study offers two key standpoints for medical education
researchers, educators, and policy makers to ensure the responsible use
of Web3 technologies in this field. Standpoint 1: If the use of
blockchain technology is necessary, avoid using proof-of-work
blockchains. Standpoint 2: Use Holochain instead of blockchain.
