AI can help with the work. Who still answers for the result?

A student finishes an assignment with AI. A business lets software handle customer complaints. A doctor reviews a computer's recommendation. The technology may be useful in each case. Someone still needs to understand what has been handed over, what should be checked, and when a person must step in.

In The Delegation Age, George L. Taylor explores how artificial intelligence is changing work, education, healthcare, family life, creativity, and government. He explains the choices in everyday language, using familiar situations alongside documented evidence.

When does helpful assistance become too much control? What happens to skills when machines perform the work through which people used to learn? Who can challenge a wrong decision, and who has the power to change it?

Taylor brings these questions together in eight principles and a practical Accountability Test. Readers can use the framework to examine decisions in their own workplaces, communities, and lives.

This book is for readers who want to understand what increasingly capable AI means for human judgment. No programming knowledge is required.

Delegate the work. Never delegate the accountability.
