The university president explained that artificial intelligence is no longer a luxury or science fiction, but has become a tangible reality that changes the rules of the game in the medical sector, as it strongly contributes to supporting clinical decisions, monitoring patients remotely with extreme accuracy, and reducing human errors, thus giving nursing staff superior predictive capabilities to save lives. He pointed out that organizing this conference embodies Beni Suef University’s constant keenness to keep pace with the language of the times, and to strive towards integrating technological tools into the core of clinical practice, and to qualify students and graduates to employ smart applications in line with the state’s vision towards comprehensive digitization.

Dr. Hanan El-Zeblawy Hassan, Dean of the Faculty of Nursing and Head of the Conference, expressed her pride in the conference's outstanding success, extending her sincere thanks and appreciation to the organizing committee and all those who contributed to its success, especially Dr. Abeer Nasr, Vice President of the Conference, Dr. Amani Arafat, General Secretary , and the coordinators Dr. Noha Hassan, Dr. Ola Adel, and Dr. Ahmed Mustafa. She announced the conclusion of the event with the presentation of 10 important scientific recommendations for the use of artificial intelligence in nursing. These recommendations included: positioning AI as a supportive tool, not a replacement for nursing judgment; scrutinizing all its outputs; adopting a "nurse as the verifier" approach; establishing AI literacy as a core professional competency and integrating it into curricula; and embedding its governance within nursing values while demanding absolute transparency in its systems to ensure that nurses lead the smart transformation of the healthcare system.
