This working paper identifies a framework for enhancing judgment observability in AI systems, highlighting governance implications.

The aim is to address the Judgment Infrastructure Gap in AI systems by making judgment delegation observable and auditable.
Conducted empirical case analyses and system-level studies across multiple domains
Reframed judgment as an infrastructural function rather than a cognitive attribute
Developed a Standard Operating Framework for Judgment Infrastructure
Identified recurring failure patterns such as false completion and artefact mismatch
Specified core structural primitives for judgment management
Demonstrated that judgment delegation often occurs implicitly across system layers

Sincere Ann Ma (2026) studied this question.
