A firm adopts a 'human-in-the-loop' approach for its AI-based hiring tool, so that a trained recruiter reviews every AI shortlist before rejection. What is the main governance purpose of this design?

The purpose is to ensure meaningful human oversight and accountability for AI-assisted decisions about people. A recruiter who reviews and can override shortlists helps catch bias or errors, while the deploying firm remains responsible, not the software vendor.

  1. ATo ensure meaningful human oversight and accountability for decisions that affect individualsCorrect
  2. BTo eliminate the need for any training data
  3. CTo make the AI model run faster by sharing load
  4. DTo transfer legal liability entirely to the software vendor

Explanation

Human-in-the-loop keeps a person responsible for reviewing and, if needed, overriding AI outputs, which supports accountability. It does not remove the need for data, does not speed up the model, and cannot shift all legal responsibility to a vendor, since the deploying firm remains accountable.
