Explains conflicts between policies with overlapping scope
Two policies or standards can each be sound and collide on the data in both scopes, e.g. erasure on request against legal retention (GDPR Art. 17(3)(b)); the owners rule, not the reviewer.
Can AI do this?
AI does this partly Some of the tested AI models master this; others do not show it. 2 of 4 models in the current benchmark master it.
| Model | Tier | Probability of mastery | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| gemini-4-argon | Flagship | 100% | Mastered |
| gemini-3.5-flash-lite | Low cost | 68% | Not shown |
| gpt-6-luna | Low cost | 86% | Not shown |
| claude-haiku-5-5 | Low cost | 100% | Mastered |
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: Two policies or standards can each be sound and collide on the data in both scopes, e.g. erasure on request against legal retention (GDPR Art. 17(3)(b)); the owners rule, not the reviewer.
