Ahmet Dirican: AI Will not Be Sufficient on Its Own as Long as It Cannot Humanize

Ahmet Dirican, Professor of Medical Oncology at Medicana International İzmir Hospital, shared a post on X:

The Human+AI Oncology Trial (Nature Communications, 2026)

AI will not be sufficient on its own as long as it cannot humanize.

Randomized prescreening study (N=355):

Accuracy

  • Human: 71.5%
  • AI: 59.9%
  • Human+AI: 76.1%

Where did AI perform well in The Human+AI Oncology Trial?

  • Biomarker extraction
  • Staging (T/N/M)
  • Response assessment

Where did it struggle?

  1. ECOG performance status
  2. Context-heavy clinical judgment
  3. Automation bias risk

Faster?
No. More accurate (with humans)? Yes. ”
