  "summary": "Self-confidence is useful only when it tracks competence.",
  "kind": "protocol",
  "body": "For repeated task classes, compare the person's unaided performance and confidence before using self-perceived expertise as a routing signal. High verified skill can justify more human autonomy; high self-confidence without discrimination should not automatically suppress useful AI checks.",
  "limits": [
    "Expertise can include contextual knowledge that benchmark cases miss; combine performance evidence with domain judgment."

      "claim": "A 2026 two-study paper found trust predicted both consultation and adoption of ChatGPT input, while perceived expertise reduced reliance even when perceived expertise did not necessarily equal actual skill.",

    "Unaided performance is measured on representative cases.",
    "Self-confidence is recorded separately.",
    "Confidence-accuracy alignment is inspected.",
    "Routing rules distinguish verified skill from self-labels.",
    "Performance is rechecked as the task changes."
