True - but that would require that would require that the AI partner is both overpowered (they can kill the whole room without risking to take damage) and completely ignores me.

E.g., if the two of you have frequently witnessed a certain enemy launching an attack that can only be deflected by a particular shield spell, an AI healer could "learn" to cast that spell in advance when they see such an enemy.
