Key Words Artificial intelligence; Kinematics; Endoscopy; Exposure error; Quality monitoring
Core Tip Artificial intelligence (AI) in gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy has been dominated by computer-aided detection (CADe) of lesions – targeting recognition errors – with over 40 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and multiple regulatory approvals, whereas AI addressing endoscope motion, coverage, and procedural workflow has developed along a separate, largely engineering-focused trajectory. No prior systematic review has mapped the distribution, translational maturity, and certainty of evidence for kinematic AI across GI endoscopy domains. Compared with diagnostic AI, kinematic AI has produced approximately one-fifth the number of RCTs, one-quarter the number of enrolled patients, about one-twelfth the annual publication output, and no standalone regulatory approvals. Only two of eight domains reached moderate GRADE certainty; all eight RCTs were conducted in Chinese centers and six used the ENDOANGEL platform, indicating pronounced geographic and platform concentration. The remaining six domains are at the pre-clinical/engineering stage; the gap with surgical AI is best explained by ecosystem-level factors rather than by technical immaturity alone. The four-arm RCT demonstrated that computer-aided quality and CADe address independent failure modes with additive benefit on adenoma detection rate, supporting integration of kinematic monitoring into existing CADe platforms as the most direct translational pathway. Priority investments include building open kinematic datasets, establishing GI-specific benchmarking challenges analogous to the EndoVis series, conducting colonoscopy three-dimensional coverage RCTs outside China, and defining regulatory pathways for AI that acts on motion rather than on images.
