Navigating the Human-Tech Nexus: Hybrid Intelligence as a Driver of Innovation and Trust in Software Engineering Decision-Making
This study utilizes an AI-supported research platform to demonstrate that human–AI hybrid solutions are the most frequently preferred and balanced approach in software engineering decision-making, achieving high creativity while maintaining accuracy and trust comparable to human-only solutions, thereby suggesting that engineering education should focus on integrating AI as a collaborative tool rather than a substitute for human judgment.
