Artificial intelligence (AI) now performs many tasks that were once the exclusive province of physicians.1 It makes difficult diagnoses, provides psychological counseling, detects drug interactions, reads images, predicts outcomes, and reviews scientific articles (eAppendix in the Supplement).2 As these capacities expand, physicians’ roles will change. In many settings, physicians are increasingly positioned as supervisors of semiautonomous systems, retaining responsibility with diminished autonomy.3
