Source details Corbin, T., Bearman, M., Boud, D., & Dawson, P. (2025). The wicked problem of AI and assessment.
Contemporary AI discourse often focuses on 'sanctuary strategies' — defensive attempts to identify uniquely human capabilities — positioning humans and AI as competitors for finite cognitive territory. This essay reframes human-AI relationships as embedded within complex cognitive ecologies where meaning emerges through interaction, and introduces 'taste' as a framework for cultivating contextual judgement: sophisticated discernment about when, how, and why to engage AI in service of meaningful purposes. Unlike technical literacy, taste development involves iterative experimentation and reflection, preserving human agency over value determination. By shifting from 'What can humans do that AI cannot?' to 'How might AI help us do more of what we value?', the essay builds a case for abundance-oriented human-AI partnership.
Health professions education faces a fundamental challenge: graduates are simultaneously overwhelmed with information yet under-prepared for complex practice environments. This essay introduces a theoretically grounded framework for integrating AI into health professions education that shifts focus from assessing outputs to supporting learning processes. Drawing on social constructivism, critical pedagogy, complexity theory, and connectivism, six principles emerge — dialogic knowledge construction, critical consciousness, adaptive expertise, contextual authenticity, metacognitive development, and networked knowledge building — to guide AI integration in ways that prepare professionals for the complexity and uncertainty of contemporary healthcare practice.
