Human-Machine Teaming

Citing Paul Scharre, “The winner of the robotics revolution will not be who develops this technology first or even who has the best technology, but who figures out how to best use it.”

If we are used to work with machines since the last industrial revolution, teaming with a (or more) machines to better perform a task is still something new. Example of such interactions includes aircraft cockpits, industrial plants, but also nursing and caring psychological or physical. What function or task would you be ready to give to perform to a machine rather than to a human?

Examples of answers already received

In medical context, when the machine allows better decision and precision in surgery
In situation where the machines can analyse inputs much quicker and better than humans and allow therefore a more informed decision than without teaming
Reduce risk for humans (Assistant Systems or remote piloted robots)
Rescue of people in hazardous environment
Support for Soldiers in dangerous situations on a battlefield
Saturate Sensors of the Enemy
Applications for which the machine does not bring any value other than the economical ones
