The future of artificial intelligence (AI) is being debated as a means of transition towards a more automated society while ensuring that the process is beneficial for humanity. The article discusses the need to balance the need for AI to be integrated into professional practice, with examples such as radiology where an AI diagnostic tool, CheXpert, experienced a decline in accuracy due to its AI predictions but did not enhance diagnostic performance. The distinction between automation and collaboration is crucial, as a poorly designed AI tool cannot effectively support collaboration, leading to miscommunication and inefficiencies. The author suggests that collaboration tools require human input and enhance user capabilities when AI is used as a collaborative tool, enhancing accuracy and enhancing human skills. However, there is a risk that over-reliance on AI tools might degrade critical thinking and expertise among novice AI users. The future will likely require a mix and collaboration designs that prioritise human expertise across machine and machine strengths.
