Knowing whether an AI agent performed well requires someone who can do the work without it. That someone is becoming scarce. Three months of AI-assisted clinical practice was enough to measurably degrade doctors' independent diagnostic accuracy.

Most organizations see this as redundancy. It's actually calibration infrastructure, and the window to build it is shrinking while the spreadsheet says everything looks fine.
