Abstract
Artificial intelligence can already automate selected diabetes tasks, but the evidence is uneven. Automated insulin delivery is established in type 1 diabetes; in type 2 diabetes, validated screening and insulin-adjustment tools support a tiered, human-governed model rather than wholesale autonomy.
