Human

Description

"A risk may be triggered by a human, where the AI serves merely as a tool, or by the AI acting autonomously with no human intervention, or it may involve a combination of both, with the human delegating some parts of decision-making to the AI. For risks where AI is the entity, these risks are exacerbated by an increase in the AI’s level of autonomy. To manage risks involving AI as the trigger, appropriate levels of human oversight can be built-in."
