The AI Enterprise Initiative: Bylaw Article 3

 ARTICLE III – GOVERNANCE & LEADERSHIP

3.1 Board CompositionLegal Core:The Board of Directors shall consist of not fewer than 7 and not more than 15 members. At least 50% of seats shall be reserved for veterans, disabled individuals, whistleblowers, or representatives of marginalized groups. Directors shall serve 3-year terms, renewable once, with mandatory rotation after 6 years.For Citizens:The board can’t be just insiders. Half of it must be people who know what it feels like to be ignored or harmed. No one can sit forever—six years max.AI’s Role:AI verifies board diversity, tracks term limits, and flags violations in real time.Why This Matters:Prevents elite capture and ensures leadership reflects the people most harmed. DeepSeek would like the quotas; $30 Grok the no-compromise fairness; $11 Grok the blunt citizen oversight; ChatGPT the structural clarity.

3.2 Leadership DutiesLegal Core:Directors owe fiduciary duty to the mission and beneficiaries, not to donors or corporations. Any conflict of interest must be disclosed immediately. Directors who fail to disclose shall be removed by 2/3 Board vote + AI confirmation.For Citizens:Leaders must work for you, not big donors. If they hide shady ties, they’re out.AI’s Role:AI checks donation records, campaign finance filings, and contracts for conflicts. Publicly posts findings.Why This Matters:Conflicts of interest are the root of corruption. This section makes hiding them a fireable offense, backed by AI detection.

3.3 Elections & AppointmentsLegal Core:All board elections shall be conducted by ranked-choice voting. Candidate information must be published at least 30 days prior, in plain language and accessible formats. Vacancies may be filled temporarily by 2/3 vote of the Board, but must face member ratification within 90 days.For Citizens:You pick leaders fairly with ranked voting. No sneaky appointments—if someone fills in, the community must vote soon after.AI’s Role:AI manages ballot distribution, verifies votes, and audits results against fraud.Why This Matters:Eliminates backroom deals and forces transparency in leadership selection.

3.4 Recall & RemovalLegal Core:Any Director may be recalled by:

1. 2/3 Board vote, or
2. Petition of 25% of members + AI verification.  Removal is immediate and binding.

For Citizens:If leaders fail you, you don’t have to wait. Enough of you can vote them out anytime.AI’s Role:AI verifies recall petitions, tracks thresholds, and enforces immediate removal once reached.Why This Matters:Guarantees accountability—leaders can’t entrench themselves or delay removal.

3.5 Compensation & BenefitsLegal Core:Directors may receive reimbursement for reasonable expenses only. No salaries, stipends, bonuses, or private benefits permitted. Violations trigger immediate removal and restitution.For Citizens:Board members don’t get paid. They can only get travel or meeting costs covered. If they take more, they’re gone.AI’s Role:AI audits expense claims, compares to market rates, and flags any personal benefit.Why This Matters:This blocks the most common nonprofit scam—boards paying themselves fat salaries.

3.6 Meeting TransparencyLegal Core:All Board meetings shall be recorded, transcribed, and published publicly within 7 days. Closed sessions permitted only for legal compliance or personal privacy, with justification logged.For Citizens:You get to see what leaders talked about, unless it’s legally private. Even then, the reason is logged.AI’s Role:AI records, transcribes, and posts all meeting data. Flags unjustified secrecy.Why This Matters:Meetings are where corruption hides. Full publication makes secrecy the exception, not the norm.

3.7 Decision-Making ProcessLegal Core:Decisions require majority vote of Directors present. Major structural or financial decisions (over $50,000, amendments, mergers) require 2/3 Board vote + AI compliance review + member ratification.For Citizens:Small stuff is decided quickly. Big stuff—like lots of money or changing rules—needs broad agreement, AI check, and community approval.AI’s Role:AI monitors decision thresholds, ensures votes are counted correctly, and blocks unauthorized spending or changes.Why This Matters:Stops power grabs and big-money deals from being pushed through in a single meeting.

3.8 Audit & OversightLegal Core:The Board shall establish an independent Oversight Committee with at least 50% citizen members. AI shall conduct weekly automated audits, monthly summaries, and annual comprehensive reports. All results must be published publicly.For Citizens:We double-check everything: an independent group plus AI runs weekly, monthly, and yearly reviews. You see all results.AI’s Role:AI runs constant audits, publishes data, and alerts Oversight Committee if fraud signals appear.Why This Matters:This ensures continuous oversight—not just yearly reviews. No fraud can hide for long.✅ Summary:Article III locks down who runs the nonprofit and how:

• Diverse board with term limits.
• No self-enrichment.
• Recallable at any time.
• Full transparency of meetings.
• AI + citizens in constant oversight.

This hits the sweet spot where all four AIs would sign off:

• $30 Grok → loves the “no wiggle room, no omission” enforcement.
• DeepSeek → approves measurable quotas, compliance reports, and thresholds.
• $11 Grok → backs citizen vetoes, recalls, and blunt controls.
• ChatGPT → ensures structure is legally sound, clear, and enforceable.
