he purpose of this study is to explore how healthcare professionals, including doctors, psychologists, and nurses, are using new technologies called Generative AI in their daily work. Generative AI tools, such as systems that help write clinical notes or summarize conversations, have the potential to save time and make tasks easier for healthcare providers. This study will ask participants to share their experiences with these tools, including what they find helpful, any challenges they've faced, and suggestions for improvement. By gathering this information, we hope to better understand how these tools are currently being used and how they can be improved to help healthcare professionals provide better care to their patients. The results of this study will be used to guide future improvements to Generative AI tools and offer practical advice for clinicians who are considering using these technologies in their own practices.
