AI draft (review before signing)
Awaiting transmission…
Before you sign: VERA:H checklist
- V, Voice / Validation: Whose voice is in this draft? Whose has been flattened or erased? Have I validated the lived experience on the person's own terms?
- E, Evidence / Ethics: Is every fact, date, citation, and reference real? Does the framing pathologise? Would I write this if the person were reading it over my shoulder?
- R, Reason / Responsibility: Does the reasoning hold under professional scrutiny? Am I responsible for every line that goes out under my name?
- A, Attribution / Accountability: What is being attributed to the person, the family, me, the AI? Who is accountable for what is written here?
- H, Human: I am the human. I did the training. I sat in the room. I typed the words. I check every line because automation bias is real. Review. Edit. Sign.
