  "summary": "An assistant can turn a possibility into an assurance without changing the subject of a message. Research on psychological contracts helps explain why that difference deserves managerial review.",

      "heading": "The premature conclusion",
      "point": "One might conclude that every message should be made conditional and all committing language removed."
    },
    {
      "heading": "What these papers cannot establish",
      "point": "Both articles offer theoretical frameworks that predate generative assistants; they measure neither how often these tools introduce promises nor their effects on employees."

      "heading": "A practical check in Fribourg",
      "point": "Within SHR's « IA on the job » programme, an exercise in Fribourg could compare the human draft, the AI-assisted version and the approved message using anonymised cases from the agri-food sector, bilingual industry and the university hub."
