Article 14 · Chapter III: High-Risk AI Systems
Human Oversight
High risk
Summary
High-risk AI systems must be designed so that they can be effectively overseen by natural persons during use. Oversight measures must enable assigned humans to understand capabilities and limitations, remain aware of automation bias, correctly interpret output, decide not to act, and intervene or stop the system.
Key obligations
- Build in oversight tools (interpretability aids, override controls, stop functions)
- Specify oversight measures in instructions for use
- For biometric identification, two-person verification before action
