- Human oversight, ensuring a natural person can effectively monitor, intervene in, or stop the high-risk system's operation. ✓Correct: enabling a person to monitor and intervene is the human-oversight requirement for high-risk systems.
- Data minimization, ensuring the system collects and retains only the least personal data needed to reach its stated output goals.Plausible but wrong: data minimization concerns data volume, not the ability to intervene in operation.
- Copyright compliance, ensuring the training-data summary discloses the protected works used to build the model.Plausible but wrong: copyright/training-data duties are unrelated to operational intervention.
- Cross-border transfer control, ensuring personal data leaves the Union only under an approved legal mechanism.Wrong: transfer controls govern data movement, not human intervention in the system.
The trap
Mixing up human oversight (operational control) with data-protection duties like minimization or transfers. How to remember it
Enabling a person to monitor, intervene in, or stop the system implements the EU AI Act's human-oversight requirement.
