Fit band
A qualitative statement of AI suitability for the assessed task: strong, assisted, limited, or avoid.
Definition
A qualitative statement of AI suitability for the assessed task: strong, assisted, limited, or avoid.
Practical test
How suitable is AI for this task after considering ambiguity, evidence, verifiability, consequence, and action—not expected business benefit alone?
Example
A high-benefit employment-screening idea can still have an avoid fit band because the v1 house boundary excludes AI influence.
What to record
For fit band to be operational rather than a reassuring label, record the qualitative band and the task facts that justify it, separate from disposition and risk. If those facts cannot be observed or tested, do not treat the term itself as evidence that the workflow is safe.
