Authority
Who is permitted to decide and act.
Human Governance is part of the architecture—not a disclaimer underneath an AI feature.
Who is permitted to decide and act.
Who remains responsible for the outcome.
Where humans can stop, correct or reject system actions.
Which actions require explicit human consent.
When automation must hand responsibility to a person.
Where context and consequence require human decision.
A reminder is not the same as a financial approval. A recommendation is not the same as a disciplinary decision. Fitment determines where automation is acceptable, augmentation is useful and human approval must remain.
“Artificial Intelligence operates. Humans govern.”
We will first determine whether anything genuinely needs to change—and only then determine what should be designed, built or integrated.
