The application of AI in healthcare is becoming increasingly prevalent, with growing anticipation surrounding the eventual advent of strong AI following the release of ChatGPT. Thus, understanding the determinants of using AI-assisted medical consultations becomes imperative. This research, focusing on Taiwanese people, aims to elucidate the direct and mediated relationships between health literacy, information literacy, perceived trust of AI, perceived efficiency of AI, attitudes and usage intention toward AI-assisted medical consultations. Utilizing online convenience sampling in February 2024, a total of 154 valid responses were collected. Employing PLS-SEM analysis, we found that the three dimensions of health literacy (healthcare, disease prevention, health promotion) do not exert direct influence on attitudes toward AI-assisted medical consultations. Instead, they manifest indirect effects through AI trust perception and AI efficiency perception. Conversely, information literacy directly influences on attitudes toward AI-assisted medical consultations and AI efficiency perception. Furthermore, this study identifies key determinants of the intention to adopt AI-assisted medical consultations, primarily rooted in trust in AI technology and positive attitudes toward it. These findings hold practical implications, serving as valuable references for the promotion of AI-assisted medical consultations within large medical institutions in Taiwan. |
