AI Reader FAQs 

Q1: What is AI Reader and how does it work?   

• Answer: AI Reader is a learning tool available in select texts on Access (Medical). It allows users to: 

• Highlight a section of text (up to 400 words) and generate explanations and quiz questions (3 questions per highlighted section). AI Reader helps users actively engage with trusted content, making it easier to understand and remember key information.  

• Note: To use AI Reader, users must be signed into their McGraw Hill account and institutionally authenticated. If you don’t have an account, you can create one while authenticated to access the feature.  

Q2: How does AI Reader use AI technology? 

• Answer: AI Reader is powered by a large language model (LLM). This LLM is a private instance of OpenAI’s GPT-4o provided via Microsoft Azure AI. It uses a Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) approach, which indexes and retrieves relevant content from the specified Access (Medical) title (and only that title) to provide accurate summaries and questions. Learn more about the technology behind AI Reader and our approach to responsible AI implementation.
