LDR.4:4.9 - Reconsider the whole introduction when capable AI changes the cost

If qualified AI can prepare the subject reasoning, answer objections from permitted sources, obtain bounded commitments and execute the first contribution, compare that whole arrangement with the human-led introduction. It can remove a drafting handover, a meeting or a separate operational coordinator; it is not limited to accelerating the presentation.

Establish the agent’s actual remit. It may have authority to reserve a resource below a limit or agree a service slot, while lacking authority to bind another organization or disclose a protected example. An inference about what a person would probably accept is no substitute for the required response. Effective delegated decisions are real contributions; they need not be repeated by a human merely because the performer is an AI.

Apply C.11.DUA to setup, qualification, access, communication, compute, exception handling, maintenance and receiver burden. If a human review supplies a required independent judgement, include it as a constrained resource. If it adds no needed guarantee under the effective arrangement, compare removing it rather than crediting an efficiency that cannot be realized.

Conditional strong-AI scenarios show how the method adapts when competence and cost change. A changed capability claim or new failure reopens the affected arrangement.
