View Course Details Please note: exam questions are subject to change.


1.  Which of the following statements about AI is valid?
  1. Machine learning (ML) is a form of AI that can learn from data patterns without human direction.
  2. GenAI can generate new content responding to a prompt by identifying patterns in massive quantities of training data and then creating original material with similar characteristics.
  3. The rapid growth of more powerful computers and the accompanying expansion of expertise will accelerate the use and capabilities of AI.
  4. All of the above
2.  Deep-learning AI models have many strengths. Which of the following characteristics are true of deep-learning-based AI models?
  1. Deep-learning models excel at learning from text, images, audio, and code.
  2. Deep-learning models understand sequential data, such as how a word is used in a sentence.
  3. Deep-learning models underlie generative AI.
  4. All of the above
3.  Which of the following statements is MISLEADING about AI-driven virtual providers?
  1. AI-based virtual providers cannot express emotions by reacting to peoples' feelings.
  2. GenAI allows us to provide accessible, competent virtual providers instead of one-on-one in-person medical care when patients need constant or repetitive instructions.
  3. Virtual GenAI providers, like AIME, can learn, converse, and problem-solve like humans.
  4. Telepresence using virtual providers can transform over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aid adoption by allowing patients to feel as if they are physically present with someone whom technology represents digitally.
4.  AI can be used to solve many hearing healthcare problems successfully. Which of the following hearing healthcare problems is LEAST likely to be improved or solved by AI?
  1. Providing an array of providers customized to the patient’s needs.
  2. Making accessing hearing healthcare information easier.
  3. Increasing affordability and access that limits HHC in rural and economically challenged communities.
  4. Increasing the number of audiologists to serve the increased service demand.
5.  Which of the following statements about genomics is LEAST valid?
  1. In the last twenty years, the cost of sequencing an individual genome has decreased from $3 billion to less than $100.
  2. CRISPR therapies must be repeatedly administered and are subject to interactions.
  3. Properly diagnosing hearing loss must include all genetic and acquired causes; AI and precision medicine enable us to do that.
  4. Gene editing will allow us to rewrite HHC-relevant portions of the genome.
