Six task dimensions
Analyse the work before choosing the intervention.
Each dimension changes the balance between automation, augmentation and accountable human control.
Repetitiveness
How consistently does the task follow a known pattern?
Cognitive complexity
How much interpretation, synthesis or novel reasoning is required?
Uncertainty
How stable is the information and how predictable is the outcome?
Empathy
Does success depend on genuine emotional understanding or trust?
Ground truth
Can the output be checked against a reliable answer?
Verification
How costly is an error and who must remain accountable?
