Run 2026-04-01
Claim C024
Hypothesis H1

Statement

The EU AI Act uses automation bias and creates a deployer awareness obligation

Status

Current: Supported

Supporting Evidence

Evidence Summary
SRC01-E01 EU AI Act Article 14 uses 'automation bias' and creates deployer awareness obligation, not system-design constraint

Contradicting Evidence

Evidence Summary
No contradicting evidence found

Reasoning

Article 14 requires that high-risk AI systems be provided to deployers so that oversight personnel are enabled to remain aware of 'the possible tendency of automatically relying or over-relying on the output produced by a high-risk AI system (automation bias).' This is explicitly a deployer awareness obligation — the deployer must train personnel. It is not a system-design constraint imposed on AI providers.

Relationship to Other Hypotheses

H1 represents full accuracy. H2 allows for partial correctness. H3 is eliminated by the evidence.
