ChapterRead more about AI-based decision-making and the human oversight requirement under the AI act2023. Claes Granmar.In the EU, software classified as artificial intelligence (AI) is considered to categorically pose a high risk to human health, safety and fundamental rights if it is applied in relation to products covered by the system for public surveillance and enforcement known as the “new legal framework”, and when implemented in certain areas beyond the general product safety regime. Whereas private parties carry the enforcement costs regarding low- or no-risk AI, the EU Member States must, according to the AI Act, have a dialogue with those who provide and apply high-risk AI professionally to ensure compliance prior to marketing and as long as the system is in use. Since the AI system learns and adapts, Article 14 of the AI Act provides that a natural person shall be designated by the professional user to oversee the high-risk AI system continuously. However, the AI Act does not define the rights and interests that it is intended to safeguard. A case in point is the right to data protection, which is mainly particularised in the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Measures typically need to be taken ex ante to ensure that data processing by a high-risk AI system complies with the data subject’s right under Article 22 of the GDPR “not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning him or her or similarly significantly affects him or her”. In that context, the relationship between the system for impact assessment established primarily by Article 35 of the GDPR and the compliance regime introduced by the AI Act is explored.
