To get a good exam result, the researchers of Xiao yi started to prepare for the exam since june 2016. They input knowledge from tens of medical textbooks into Xiao Yi's brain.
However, just remembering the knowledge is far from enough. Xiao Yi also had to analyze all the information provided by the test questions.
To deal with the problem, researchers invited medical experts for Xiao Yi in February to learn clinical experience and case diagnosis. Yet Xiao Yi and its researchers still have a long way to go before becoming qualified for a doctor.
