Learn how to optimize delegation and verification of AI tasks in institutional workflows, and why it matters for worker quality and institutional outcomes

advanced Published 26 Jun 2026
Action Steps
  1. Model delegation and verification as an optimization problem to determine the optimal level of AI task execution
  2. Evaluate worker quality based on institution-centered utility, considering private costs and outcome-based standards
  3. Analyze the misalignment between worker private costs and institutional outcome-based standards, to identify potential areas for improvement
  4. Develop strategies to align worker incentives with institutional goals, using delegation and verification as key levers
  5. Apply optimization techniques to determine the optimal level of verification effort, given the trade-offs between accuracy and cost

Title: Delegation and Verification Under AI

Abstract:
arXiv:2603.02961v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: As AI systems enter institutional workflows, workers must decide whether to delegate task execution to AI and how much effort to invest in verifying AI outputs, while institutions evaluate workers using outcome-based standards that may misalign with workers' private costs. We model delegation and verification as the solution to a rational worker's optimization problem, and define worker quality by evaluating an institution-centered utilit
