Contributions(1) HAIF framework: roles, responsibilities, and authority levels for human-AI teams; (2) Governance model for delegating decisions to agents; (3) Escalation protocols when agents fail
ClarityGood.

Relevance: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

HAIF’s governance model directly supports PUMA’s HITL principle and bounded autonomy design. Relevant for Section 1.3 (ethical-social impact) and Stage 5 governance layer.


PUMA Connection

HAIF provides the governance vocabulary for PUMA’s Stage 5: what decisions can agents make autonomously, what requires human approval, and how to escalate failures. Supports PUMA Constitution Articles 4 (HITL) and 5 (open source).
