Description¶

The paper recommends treating reflective engagement as an organisational investment: "If organisations do not recognise reflective engagement as an investment in long-term competence, these mechanisms are unlikely to be sustained in practice." Because reflective mechanisms add friction and time to each decision, workplaces optimising for throughput will erode them, and competing tools offering the same AI support without friction create market pressure against skill-sustaining designs. The paper poses this as spanning interaction design, organisational policy, and governmental policy.

Design Implications¶

Context¶

Requirements¶

Organisational recognition of reflective engagement as long-term competence investment, and productivity targets that leave room for deliberate reflection.

Constraints¶

Particularly difficult in high-stakes, risk-averse domains where reflection is linked to safety yet throughput is measured; competitive pressure from faster rival tools can make skill-sustaining designs a disadvantage.

Target Learners¶

Professionals using AI decision support in workplaces with productivity targets

Target Learning Goals¶

Maintaining deliberate reflective engagement with AI output during routine professional decisions

Affordances¶

Skill Sustaining Reliance Framework

Claims¶

Repeated reflective prompts may habituate, so scaffolding can replace rather than strengthen the user's own metacognitive habits [~W]
