Abstract

It is often said that “humans must have the final authority over the automation.” However, correctness of the above statement is context-dependent, by noting that authority is usually interconnected with responsibility. This paper discusses a necessity of an adaptive function allocation and argues that authority trading from humans to automation may be necessary and appropriate. Moreover, it is claimed that a system-initiated trading of authority can even be useful and indispensable.
