This narrative review, guided by the Scale for the Assessment of Narrative Review Articles principles, examines clinically relevant applications of artificial intelligence and related automation in anesthesiology, with emphasis on three linked functions: risk prediction, clinical decision support, and supervised automation. We performed a structured search of PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus databases and identified English-language literature published from January 2010 through June 2026. We prioritized clinical studies, guidelines, systematic reviews, and representative methodological studies. A central distinction of this review is that machine-learning prediction, rule-based decision support, conventional feedback control, and genuinely adaptive artificial intelligence\u2013enabled control are not treated as equivalent technologies. Current evidence is strongest for selected prediction tasks and supervised systems that improve process measures such as time within a physiological target range. However, evidence that these technologies improve patient-centered outcomes remains less consistent. Model discrimination alone is insufficient; calibration, actionable thresholds, false-positive burden, external validation, clinical utility, dataset shift, missing data, and workflow consequences must also be considered. The proposed three-level framework is intended to provide anesthesiologists and perioperative teams with a practical way to connect technical capability with bedside action. Near-term implementation should prioritize interpretable prediction and low-burden decision support, whereas closed-loop systems should remain under clinician supervision. Future studies should emphasize prospective multicenter validation, clinically meaningful endpoints, transparent reporting, and post-deployment monitoring rather than technical performance alone.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/03000605261491422","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,29]],"date-time":"2026-09-29T07:14:35Z","timestamp":1790666075000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Artificial intelligence\u2013assisted perioperative risk prediction, decision support, and supervised automation in anesthesia: A narrative review"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"54","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0008-9970-701X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ran","family":"An","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Peking University Third Hospital"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0002-5384-3135","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Bingbing","family":"Meng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"PLA General Hospital (PLA Medical School)"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-8585-9669","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Xun","family":"Lu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"PLA General Hospital (PLA Medical School)"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","article-title":"Personalized anesthesia and precision medicine: a comprehensive review of genetic factors, artificial intelligence, and patient-specific factors","volume":"11","author":"Zeng S","year":"2024","unstructured":"Zeng S, Qing Q, Xu W, et al.
