A recent study published in The Lancet revealed that endoscopists' detection rates for precancerous growths decreased after using AI assistance during colonoscopies. The study of 1,443 procedures showed a drop from 28.4% to 22.4% in unaided detection when AI tools were employed. Researchers suggest that the way AI is integrated—whether as a substitute for human judgment or a scaffold for learning—significantly impacts skill retention. AI
