Could actions be incorrectly attributed to an individual or group?

Your AI system could have an adverse impact on individuals by incorrectly attributing them facts or actions. For instance, a facial recognition system that identifies a person incorrectly, or an inaccurate risk prediction model that could negatively impact an individual.

If you answered Yes then you are at risk

If you are not sure, then you might be at risk too

Recommendations

  • Evaluate the possible consequences of inaccuracies of your AI system and implement measures to prevent these errors from happening: avoiding bias and discrimination during the life cycle of the model, ensuring the quality of the input data, implementing a strict human oversight process, ways to double check the results with extra evidence, implementing safety and redress mechanisms, etc.
  • Assess the impact on the different human rights of the individual.
  • Consider not to implement such a system if you cannot mitigate the risks.
