The claim involves an emerging narrative about integrating human and AI decision-making, with some uncertainties regarding its effectiveness and implementation, but it is grounded in analytical derivations and lacks the depth of unanswered questions or speculative elements.

Combining human and artificial intelligence (AI) is a potentially powerful approach to boost decision accuracy. However, few such approaches exist that effectively integrate both types of intelligence while maintaining human agency. Here, we introduce and evaluate the hybrid confirmation tree, a simple aggregation strategy that compares the independent decisions of both a human and AI, with disagreements triggering a second human tiebreaker. Through analytical derivations, we show that the hy...
