Conclusion The overwhelming interest and engagement for the McMedHacks workshop series from the Radiation Oncology (RadOnc) community illustrates a demand for Artificial Intelligence (AI) education in RadOnc. The future of RadOnc clinics will inevitably integrate AI. Therefore, current RadOnc professionals, and student and resident trainees should be prepared to understand basic AI principles and its applications to troubleshoot, innovate, and collaborate. McMedHacks set an excellent example of promoting open and multidisciplinary education, scientific communication, and leadership for integrating AI education into the RadOnc community on an international level. Therefore, we advocate for implementation of AI curriculums in professional education programs such as Commission on Accreditation of Medical Physics Education Programs (CAMPEP). Furthermore, we encourage experts from around the world in the field of AI, or RadOnc, or both, to take initiatives like McMedHacks to collaborate and push forward AI education in their departments and lead practical workshops, regardless of their levels of education.
