# How could human and machine authority be divided without making human participation ceremonial?

## Direct answer

The reports propose temporal jurisdiction: machines handle millisecond safety and high-volume operations within explicit limits; humans retain binding authority over law, culture, ultimate goals, rights, and the definition of human value; joint institutions govern intermediate resource and planning windows; independent provenance and appeal bodies audit both.

## What this does not establish

This is a proposed constitutional architecture, not enacted law or proof that the allocation will remain stable as capabilities and incentives change.
