Figure 2
A diagram shows first order concepts linked to second order themes which connect to three aggregate dimensions named oversight and operationalisation, ethical contextual framing, and epistemic sovereignty.The diagram presents a structured hierarchy beginning with many first order concepts displayed in separate labelled boxes. These first order concepts connect through arrows to grouped second order themes describing oversight capability, operational autonomy, regulatory compliance, adaptive decision making, contextual framing, ethical considerations, guardrails on problem framing and ethical limits, social and political pressures, trade offs in exploratory framing, epistemic agency, supported exploration with human oversight, interpretive friction and cognitive paradoxes, strategic resistance and framing control, strategic autonomy, operational autonomy, conditional autonomy, strategic caution and human retention. All second order themes link to three large oval aggregate dimensions labelled oversight and operationalisation, ethical contextual framing, and epistemic sovereignty. The structure shows how specific concepts relate to broader themes and how these themes combine into overarching dimensions.
