Directly Responsible Individuals (DRI) I've been thinking about this term recently in the context of LLM-powered agents and how they fit into human organizations. I don't think an agent should ever be considered the DRI for a project - that's something that feels uniquely human to me, because humans can take accountability for their actions where machines cannot.
(See also IBM's legendary 1979 training slide that states "A computer can never be held accountable, therefore a computer must never make a management decision.")
