The Decision Still Needs A Human Owner.
A Person Receives A Decision Shaped By An AI-Assisted Summary. They Can Read The Outcome, But They May Still Need Someone To Explain Which Facts Mattered, What Was Omitted, And How Their Account Was Considered.
For An Institution, The Responsibility Begins Before The Decision Reaches That Person. Someone Must Define The Purpose Of The Assistance, Examine Its Sources And Limitations, Protect Sensitive Information, And Decide Whether The Output Is Suitable For Use.
Re Culture™’s Human-Governed AI Partnership Standard Places Purpose, Meaning, Ethical Judgement, And Final Authority With An Identifiable Human. Assistance Can Extend The Work; The Person Who Approves Its Use Remains Responsible For What Follows.
The Standard Is An Institutional Commitment. It Does Not Establish That Every AI-Assisted Output Has Been Independently Verified, Nor Does It Certify Another Institution’s Practices.
A Meaningful Review Gives The Human Decision-Maker Room To Question The Output And Pause Its Use. The Person Affected Must Remain Present In That Judgement.
A Decision Carries Human Consequences. Its Responsibility Must Remain Human.
