The next level does not have the decision type in its decides, or its mandate excludes it. The escalation arrives and is sent back.
Can AI do this?
People still lead Few or none of the tested AI models showed they master this. 1 of 4 models in the current benchmark master it.
| Model | Tier | Probability of mastery | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| gemini-4-argon | Flagship | 91% | Mastered |
| gemini-3.5-flash-lite | Low cost | 10% | Not mastered |
| gpt-6-luna | Low cost | 89% | Not shown |
| claude-haiku-5-5 | Low cost | 90% | Not shown |
Mastered means a probability of at least 90% that the model has this knobit, estimated from its graded answers. “Not shown” means the answers do not settle it either way. How the models are tested.
What it looks like in practice
Expected result: The decision type and the body that can decide it
How it is assessed: Flags the deficient case and passes the acceptable one. Deficient: Risk data control disputes escalate to the Data Governance Council, whose mandate excludes risk reporting Acceptable: Escalate to GB-003 Risk Data Committee, which decides risk data aggregation controls
