Paper Nº 16

Co-Designing a Responsible AI Checklist. An Operational Framework for Bankruptcy Accountants
25/30
Score
A distinctive and well-grounded role-plus-lifecycle checklist with a strong single domain expert and a legally concrete use case, but limited by a very small sample, reliance on one expert for final calibration, missing V3 in the appendix, weak item-by-item traceability, and an informal introduction.
Bankruptcy Accounting

The Pros

+
Novel and genuinely operational structure: each of 30 items is assigned to one of four roles (BA/IT/AS/MP) and one of eight lifecycle phases, turning principles into auditable, ownable actions.
+
The V4 calibration with a court-appointed insolvency practitioner injects authentic, non-obvious domain constraints (par conditio creditorum, CCII, confidentiality-first) and the paper reflects well on expert consultation as discovery rather than mere validation.
+
The worked use case traces one realistic sub-procedure (suspicious-operation detection) through all five dimensions with specific item references, and "I trust, but I always verify" is an effective organizing stance.
+
Full interview transcripts and a demographics table are provided, supporting verifiability.
+
Discussion is genuinely reflective (governance–psychology interdependence, confidentiality as precondition) and extends beyond the checklist itself.

The Cons

Very small co-design sample (two engineering students at V2, three non-experts at V3, a single expert at V4); the final professional calibration rests on one person, a serious validity limit (acknowledged but central).
Figure 1 states V2 is "byte-for-byte identical to V1," so the genuine instrument transformation effectively happens in two leaps (V1 → V3 prose, V3 → V4 operational), and the item-by-item evolution is not traced.
V3 of the checklist is referenced in the methodology but never reproduced in the appendix (only V1, V2, and V4 appear), breaking traceability.
The relabeling from L1–L5 (Cognitive Bridge, Internal Filter, Systemic Shield, etc.) to I1–I5 plain names is not mapped, and the jump from prose "layers" to role-assigned items is unexplained.
The introduction is informal and contains spelling/grammar errors ("expecially", "redacted", "algoritms"), weakening the professional register.
