AI-induced Deskilling in Medicine: A Mixed-Method Review and Research Agenda for Healthcare and Beyond

Abstract The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare is reshaping clinical practice, offering both opportunities for enhanced decision-making and risks of skill degradation among medical professionals. This growing impact calls for a comprehensive evaluation of its effects on medical expertise. This study presents a mixed-method literature review, combining systematic analysis with narrative synthesis to examine AI-induced deskilling and upskilling inhibition-the erosion of medical expertise an…

Current reading — gain

Integration of AI in healthcare offers opportunities for enhanced decision-making in clinical practice.

Current reading — problem

AI-driven decision support systems cause erosion of medical expertise and reduction of opportunities for skill acquisition, creating risks of skill degradation and vulnerabilities in clinical judgment among medical professionals.

What this doesn’t fix

Review identifies need for stronger evidence base, advocating for longitudinal studies and real-time monitoring to assess AI impact and develop mitigation frameworks, indicating current literature is insufficient to quantify long-term skill erosion.

How to verify without trusting this page

Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-0490 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
