Record the event as a near miss: What should the evidence support?

AIGP Understanding How to Govern AI Development Medium

Prevented harm remains operational evidence; recurring near misses should be documented for corrective action.

The question

A research-administration model flags a grant record for review, but a human corrects it before any submission or disclosure occurs. Similar events recur, and the team records only completed incidents. What should the evidence support?

  1. Count only completed disclosures
    Limiting records to realized harm loses evidence about warning signs and opportunities to improve controls before recurrence.
  2. Replace incident tracking with aggregate accuracy
    Aggregate accuracy cannot capture rare near misses, operational consequences, or the effectiveness of intervention and escalation.
  3. Record the event as a near miss ✓
    A prevented harmful event still provides incident and corrective-action evidence for monitoring recurring system weaknesses.
  4. Treat the correction as validation success
    Successful intervention demonstrates an oversight opportunity, but does not establish that the underlying model behavior is acceptable.
The trap
Ask whether the event reveals a control weakness, not merely whether harm was completed.
