Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, encompassing virtual reality, augmented reality and adaptive learning platforms, offer immersive and personalised opportunities for undergraduate orthopaedic education. However, their adoption is hindered by limited faculty acceptance, data privacy and ethical risks, and disparities in educational resources. This study examines the opportunities and challenges of AI integration in orthopaedic teaching and proposes strategies including systematic AI training, strengthened data protection, resource sharing, and blended learning models. These measures aim to enhance the quality of learning for students and educators while fostering innovation and progress in medical education.
