LinkedIn Post 10: Human Review Checkpoints
Hook: "Your AI makes the decisions. Who verifies the decisions?"
Algorithmic autonomy sounds efficient. But from a liability perspective, it's dangerous.
The moment you delegate access, allocation, or security decisions to an AI system, you need human review checkpoints. Not occasional audits. Regular, documented, evidence-based review.
Why?
Because the liability is still yours. Even when the algorithm decides, you're liable for the outcomes. Courts will ask: did you have processes to catch algorithmic errors before they harmed someone?
If you didn't, you lose.
Preliminary governance frameworks suggest:
Real-time human review for high-risk algorithmic decisions
Regular (weekly/monthly) audits of algorithmic patterns
Documented override procedures when algorithms err
Clear escalation paths for occupants disputing algorithmic decisions
Insight: The algorithm does the heavy lifting. Humans provide the accountability.
CTA: How frequently are humans reviewing the algorithmic decisions that affect your occupants?
