Rasha Aboelhassan, Senior Oncology Consultant at Nasser Institute Hospital, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“How much should we depend on AI as an oncologist?
As a physician, I’ve always believed that growth means learning new tools – but never at the expense of core skills.
AI is becoming part of our daily practice, and we must learn how to use it.
But this paper was a wake-up call:
It shows that repeated reliance on AI can quietly erode our clinical judgment and independent thinking.
While AI improves efficiency and short-term performance, it may also contribute to clinical deskilling – the gradual erosion of our diagnostic reasoning and independent judgment.
For me, the message is clear:
AI should support our decisions – not replace the way we think.
Because the real risk is not that AI makes mistakes…
It’s that one day, we stop noticing them.”
