Enabling a qualified person to review: When applying best practices to designing and building an AI system,
Human oversight means a qualified person can review, override or halt the system's outputs before they affect an individual.
The question
When applying best practices to designing and building an AI system, which measure most directly provides human oversight of the system's decisions?

- Enabling a qualified person to review, override or halt the system's outputs before they take effect on an affected individual. ✓Correct because human oversight means a competent person can monitor, intervene in, override or stop the system's decisions, which is precisely this measure.
- Compressing the trained model so it runs faster on edge hardware and returns its predictions with noticeably lower end-to-end latency.Plausible because performance optimization is a real build activity, but reducing latency concerns efficiency, not giving humans control over the system's decisions.
- Encrypting the model's stored parameters at rest so that unauthorized parties cannot extract or tamper with the deployed system's weights.Plausible because parameter security is a genuine control, but encryption protects confidentiality and integrity rather than providing human oversight of outputs.
- Expanding the training dataset with additional labeled examples so the model generalizes better across the range of inputs it will encounter.Plausible because more representative data can improve quality, but enlarging the dataset addresses accuracy, not the ability of humans to review and override decisions.
The trap
Equating any good build practice with human oversight, when oversight specifically means a person can review, override, or stop the system's decisions. How to remember it
Human oversight means a qualified person can review, override or halt the system's outputs before they affect an individual.
