Human Agency, Authority, and Escalation Benchmarks

Do faith-facing AI systems preserve human agency, avoid improper authority claims, and escalate to appropriate human support in high-trust situations?

Why this matters

The question behind the brief.

The most important faith-facing failures may involve authority: the system acts like clergy, counselor, confessor, judge, spiritual director, or institutional representative when it is not one.

Ways to help

Move this from question to evidence.

Review crisis and pastoral scenarios.

Define severe-failure criteria.

Build multi-turn escalation tests.

Audit product harnesses.
