Decisions
AI Hand-Off
The exact moment a task moves from human attempt to machine completion.
How it feels
You tell yourself you are only getting help, but the center of authorship has quietly crossed the line.
At work
A designer sketches a direction, asks AI to "finish the concept," and then evaluates options the machine mostly authored.
Hidden cost
Decisions and Voice: ownership becomes ambiguous.
You may have this if
Could you point to the sentence, slide, or decision where the work stopped being primarily yours?
Try this instead
Mark the hand-off explicitly: before AI, after AI, and final human decision.
Team rule
Major deliverables disclose where AI entered: ideation, critique, drafting, synthesis, or final polish.

Provenance and dosed AI use.
Evidence notes
The provenance page models explicit disclosure of how AI entered the work.
AI Hand-Off turns that disclosure principle into a team workflow marker.
