Abstract:
The evidence on how AI will make a revolution is insufficient. Our aim was to investigate opinions of midwives on the future of AI and midwifery. Semi-structured interviews were done with 18 midwives in Turkey. Themes were identified: expectations included the advantages and conditional acceptance of robotic technology, prejudices reflected perceived shortcomings, lack of human competencies, and trust issues. Concerns included midwifery care and concerns about her future. Midwives were overwhelmingly skeptical about the replacement of human capabilities by AI and found the technology's potential limited.
