GenAI as Complete Cognitive Automation for Untrained Users at Population Scale: Implications for Human Factors and Ergonomics

2025-12-20

Abstract excerpt

<p>Generative AI (GenAI) systems provide complete cognitive task outputs to untrained users across unrestricted domains at population scale, creating an unprecedented form of automation. We apply Parasuraman et al.’s (2000) framework of four cognitive automation stages to characterize this shift. GenAI automates all four stages simultaneously: information acquisition, information analysis, decision selection, and...
