Record whether a risk meets the obvious-risk description
Key facts
- Human involvement
- YellowClose supervision
- How AI is used
- From the description of the risk and of the person who suffered harm, build a description table. The lawyer names the civil liability statute. Where that statute is the Civil Liability Act 2002 (NSW), the description is s 5F. The tool does not decide whether the risk was obvious.
- What the lawyer must review
- The lawyer decides whether the risk was obvious to a reasonable person in the position of the person who suffered harm. Other jurisdictions are checked on their own Act. The NSW section is the one opened for this task.
