What Does This Mean?
[ SLANG ][ AI CULTURE ][ MACHINE CULTURE ]
The principle that a person remains accountable for AI-assisted work they submit or ship, regardless of how much of it was actually generated by the AI rather than written by hand.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"Doesn't matter that the AI wrote it, human ownership means it's still on you if it breaks."
LORE & ORIGIN
Extension of standard accountability norms into the AI-assisted era, asserting explicitly that delegation to AI does not transfer responsibility for the outcome.
