A while back the Biden administration proposed an "AI bill of rights" [1] that says, among other things:
> You should have access to timely human consideration and remedy by a fallback and escalation process if an automated system fails, it produces an error, or you would like to appeal or contest its impacts on you. Human consideration and fallback should be accessible, equitable, effective, maintained, accompanied by appropriate operator training, and should not impose an unreasonable burden on the public. Automated systems with an intended use within sensitive domains, including, but not limited to, criminal justice, employment, education, and health, should additionally be tailored to the purpose, provide meaningful access for oversight, include training for any people interacting with the system, and incorporate human consideration for adverse or high-risk decisions.
That was honestly my favorite part of the whole thing, and I kind of wish that was talked about more and had its chance to make it into the zeitgeist, but then I'm not surprised that it didn't. Since it feels like we may be going in the opposite direction, and now that the shine of AI is fading a bit, maybe now is another good time to bring it up.
