What is Clinicians’ Perceptions of Artificial Intelligence: Focus on Workload, Risk, Trust, Clinical Decision Making, and Clinical Integration about?

Artificial intelligence (AI) offers the potential to revolutionize healthcare, from improving diagnoses to patient safety. However, many healthcare practitioners are hesitant to adopt AI technologies fully. To understand why, this research explored clinicians’ views on AI, especially their level of trust, their concerns about potential risks, and how they believe AI might affect their day-to-day workload. We surveyed 265 healthcare professionals from various specialties in the U.S. The survey aimed to understand their perceptions and any concerns they might have about AI in their clinical practice. We further examined how these perceptions might align with three hypothetical approaches to integrating AI into healthcare: no integration, sequential (step-by-step) integration, and parallel (side-by-side with current practices) integration. The results reveal that clinicians who view AI as a workload reducer are more inclined to trust it and are more likely to use it in clinical decision making. However, those perceiving higher risks with AI are less inclined to adopt it in decision making. While the role of clinical experience was found to be statistically insignificant in influencing
