MMS AI TRANSPARENCY FRAMEWORK

Intelligence for Humanity – Clear, Ethical & Human-Centred AI

At Merkabah Management Systems, we believe that AI should amplify human capability - not replace it. Our commitment is simple: clarity, integrity, and responsibility in how AI is used across all MMS programs, content, and services.

This page outlines how we integrate AI, what safeguards we use, and the standards we follow so our clients, partners, and communities can trust the intelligence they receive.

1. Our Transparency Commitment

MMS operates with a foundational principle:

“If AI is involved, you should know.”

We disclose when AI assists in:

• Content drafting
• Image generation or enhancement
• Editing, structuring, or summarising
• Analytical support
• Automation inside dashboards or workflows
   

Human review and final decision-making remain 100% essential across all MMS output.

2. How MMS Uses AI (4 Clear Levels)

Used for spelling, clarity, tone, layout, formatting, and structural improvements.
Human-created content remains unchanged in meaning.

Examples:
Website edits, document clean-ups, readability improvements.

Transparency:
No label typically needed, as per NAIC guidance.

AI helps with phrasing, re-organising ideas, or offering optional improvements.
The meaning is human-led, guided, and reviewed.

Examples:
Framework pages, business documents, training material drafts.

Transparency:
May include: “Portions of this content were enhanced using AI.”

AI is used to produce images, diagrams, visual metaphors, or draft text that is then curated, corrected, and approved by MMS.

Examples:
Cosmic diagrams, symbolic images, website banners, LinkedIn visuals.

Transparency:
Label when appropriate: “Image enhanced/generated using AI.”
Metadata may be kept for provenance.

AI assists in generating a full first draft of frameworks, proposals, policies or conceptual models.
Humans (Mathieu Cooper + MMS team) review, refine, and take responsibility.

Examples:
Governance frameworks, risk assessments, strategic documents.

Transparency:
Disclose if significant portions originated from AI.

3. Human Oversight (Always Required)

No AI-generated content is published, taught, or delivered by MMS without:

• Human review
• Human correction
• Human approval
• Human accountability
   

AI assists - humans decide.

This aligns with:

• Australia’s NAIC transparency guidance
• OAIC expectations
• Online Safety Act principles
• Global responsible AI frameworks
   

4. Metadata, Labelling & Watermarking

We maintain (internally or in files) metadata such as:

• AI model used
• Date/time of generation
• Version/source
• Confidence or modification level
   

Used when:

• Content meaning has been modified
• Images are AI-generated
• Creative elements are produced through AI
• Clients or the public rely on accuracy
   

Labels we may use:

• “AI-assisted”
• “AI-enhanced”
• “Image generated using AI”
• “Draft generated with support from AI”
   

Used selectively for:

• Distinctive images
• Branding assets
• Visual frameworks
   

5. Ethical Foundation

MMS is built on human-centred leadership.
AI exists here to:

• expand awareness
• unlock potential
• increase clarity
• reduce complexity
• support better choices
• strengthen communities
   

Never to manipulate, mislead, or replace human judgment.

Our decisions remain anchored in:

• integrity
• responsibility
• transparency
• respect for human agency
   

This is the Merkabah difference.

6. Alignment With Australia’s Guidance

MMS aligns with:

• NAIC “Being Clear About AI-Generated Content” (2024/25)
   
• Australian Consumer Law
• OAIC privacy principles
• eSafety guidelines
• Emerging international standards (C2PA, provenance, ISO content credentials)
   

This ensures MMS is future-ready and trustworthy as AI evolves.

7. If You Ever Have Questions

Transparency is relational.
If any client, council, business, educator, or partner wants clarity about how any piece of content was created, enhanced, or reviewed:

Ask.
We will tell you.

⭐ Final Line 

AI is a tool.
Human intelligence is the compass.
At MMS, we honour both - clearly, responsibly, and with an open heart for what becomes possible when they work together.

 The Merkabah Management Systems (MMS) AI Transparency Framework is designed to align with emerging national and international approaches to responsible, trusted, and human-centred AI.

In Australia, the National AI Centre (within CSIRO’s Data61) and the National AI Plan provide strategic guidance for the adoption of AI across government and industry. As part of this, the Australian Government has published the Guidance for AI Adoption, which outlines six essential practices to help organisations embed trust, accountability, and oversight into AI systems.

These six practices are:

1. Clear accountability for AI systems and outcomes
    
2. Understanding impacts and planning before adoption
    
3. Measuring and managing risks throughout the AI lifecycle
    
4. Sharing essential information and transparency with stakeholders
    
5. Testing and monitoring AI systems over time
    
6. Maintaining meaningful human oversight where human judgement is required
    

These practices complement the MMS AI Transparency Framework and support organisations in designing and deploying AI systems that are understandable, trustworthy, and aligned with human values and organisational responsibility.

Note: You may see the term “AI6” used informally in some industry discussions to refer to these six practices. This is not an official government framework name - it is shorthand for the set of governance practices described in the Australian Government’s Guidance for AI Adoption.
