Abstract
- The article discusses the importance of data analytics (DA) and artificial intelligence (AI) competencies for public health professionals. It highlights the potential benefits of these technologies in improving population health outcomes, such as analyzing disease patterns, identifying risk factors, and informing targeted interventions. However, the article also acknowledges the challenges in integrating DA and AI into public health education and training programs, including the need for critical thinking skills and ethical considerations. The author suggests strategies for teaching these competencies, such as breaking down complex concepts, providing hands-on experience, and incorporating discussions on ethical implications. Overall, the article emphasizes the need for public health professionals to adapt to the AI revolution and contribute to shaping its development in a way that serves the public's best interests.
