Notes to entry
Note 1 to entry: AidGPT uses judgement call for choices such as what a summary should emphasise, which qualifications to retain or what next step to propose. This does not imply consciousness, professional duty or authority.
Note 2 to entry: The person defines the purpose, information, boundaries and return point. They inspect important claims and retain the authorised decision about use. A generated explanation of a choice is not independent evidence that the choice was sound.
Note 3 to entry: Other AI approaches can also make consequential selections or recommendations. The term describes the delegated choice in a task, not an exclusive property of generative AI.
