New framework proposed for AI authority resolution and decision-making

A new paper introduces the Authority Resolution Framework (ARF), a five-domain ontology designed to govern AI decision-making. ARF addresses the need to determine not just if an AI can perform an action, but if it is authorized to do so within its operational context. The framework uses a machine-interpretable representation, including JSON-LD and knowledge-graph patterns, to capture authority provenance, scope, and contextual validity before an AI executes consequential actions. AI

IMPACT This framework could enhance AI safety by providing a structured way to manage AI decision-making and prevent unauthorized actions.

    The Authority Resolution Framework: A Five-Domain Ontology for Governing Who and What Decides, at Scale

    arXiv:2608.15832v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As AI systems become increasingly capable of autonomous action, determining whether an agent is technically capable of performing an action is insufficient: the system must also determine whether the action is authorised in its cont…
