Objective: To develop the Cardiologist Annotation Tool (CAT) for frame-level cardiac view and image-quality annotation in fetal echocardiography and compare it with spreadsheet-based annotation. Methods: CAT provides cine playback, frame navigation, and keyboard-based labeling without manual frame-range entry. Experts annotated 25 studies using both methods, and spreadsheet annotations were audited for predefined data-entry errors. In a randomized crossover study, six medical students annotated two normal studies, one with each method, against an expert reference. Results: Among 1,746 spreadsheet-annotated files, 6.2% contained major or critical data-entry errors, more frequently in congenital heart disease than normal studies (10.9% vs 3.4%). CAT yielded more annotated view segments per clip (3.6 vs 1.5). Rates of labeled and correctly labeled frames per minute were 1.77 and 1.68 times those with spreadsheets, respectively (both P = 0.031), with gains in all six students. No detectable difference in view-label accuracy was observed. Conclusion: CAT eliminates manual frame-range entry and enables finer-grained, structured annotation of fetal echocardiography, providing a practical approach to preparing datasets for AI research.

Organisations deploying AI face a scoping problem: which tasks can be automated, which should remain with humans, and which are best shared between the two. Aggregate benchmark scores provide little insight into where systems will succeed or fail in practice, while human judgements of model capabilities quickly become outdated. We introduce a pipeline that profiles agents and tasks using a shared set of core cognitive capabilities. Cognitive capability profiling infers an agent's capabilities from performance on a benchmark battery annotated for the cognitive demands of each item. Task requirements weighting elicits from domain experts the relative importance of these same capabilities for their work. As both use a common set of cognitive dimensions, they can be updated independently as models and roles change, and combined to estimate AI suitability at the level of a domain, organisation, role, or individual duty. We validate capability recovery on synthetic agents, profile six AI systems, and elicit task requirements from 410 employees across six occupational domains. AI systems differed more across cognitive dimensions than across model families, while workplace activities converged on a shared cognitive core. The resulting scores provide a comparative scoping tool for identifying promising candidates for piloting and areas where current systems are unlikely to be well suited. We discuss extending the framework to profile human workers alongside AI systems, moving from AI suitability towards human-machine task allocation.

Most vision-language models (VLMs) treat the vision encoder as a static feature extractor: it encodes an image once, independently of the question, and leaves subsequent reasoning to the language model. Yet different questions may require different visual operations and processing depths. We present AdaLoop, a framework for question-conditioned visual recurrence in VLMs. AdaLoop adapts visual computation to the question and reuses the encoder's transformations across multiple iterations, with the pretrained vision weights frozen. We also introduce VisRO, a procedural dataset and generation pipeline for training and evaluating vision-centric reasoning. On six VisRO tasks, AdaLoop outperforms standard fine-tuning and question-conditioned single-pass baselines with matched training data and optimizer updates. These gains hold across three VLM families on both in-distribution and out-of-distribution examples. Our findings suggest that pretrained vision encoders can contribute to reasoning through task-directed, iterative visual computation.
