定義: An estimate of the overall severity of harm caused. "Negligible" harm means minor inconvenience or expense, easily remedied. “Minor” harm means limited damage to property, social stability, the political system, or civil liberties occurred or nearly occurred. "Moderate" harm means that humans were injured (but not killed) or nearly injured, or that financial, property, social, or political interests or civil liberties were materially affected (or nearly so affected). "Severe" harm means that a small number of humans were or were almost gravely injured or killed, or that financial, property, social, or political interests or civil liberties were significantly disrupted at at least a regional or national scale (or nearly so disrupted). "Critical" harm means that many humans were or were almost killed, or that financial, property, social, or political interests were seriously disrupted at a national or global scale (or nearly so disrupted).

定義: If harms were unevenly distributed, this field indicates the basis or bases on which they were unevenly distributed.

定義: Indicates the type(s) of harm caused or nearly caused by the incident.

定義: The entity that created the AI system.

定義: The primary economic sector in which the AI system(s) involved in the incident were operating.

定義: Indicates whether the AI system(s) were intended to perform any of the following high-level functions: "Perception," i.e. sensing and understanding the environment; "Cognition," i.e. making decisions; or "Action," i.e. carrying out decisions through physical or digital means.

定義: Open-ended tags that indicate the hardware and software involved in the AI system(s).

定義: Open-ended tags that describe the functions and applications of the AI system.

定義: The location or locations where the incident played out.

定義: All named entities (such as people, organizations, locations, and products - generally proper nouns) that seem to have a significant relationship with this event, as indicated by the available evidence.

定義: A list of parties (up to three) that were responsible for the relevant AI tool or system, i.e. that had operational control over the AI-related system causing harm (or control over those who did).

定義: Was harm caused, or was it a near miss?

定義: Indicates whether the incident was deliberate/expected or accidental, based on the available evidence. "Deliberate or expected" applies if it is established or highly likely that the system acted more or less as expected, from the perspective of at least one of the people or entities responsible for it. “Accident” applies if it is established or highly likely that the harm arose from the system acting in an unexpected way. "Unclear" applies if the evidence is contradictory or too thin to apply either of the above labels.

定義: Marked "trur" if one or more people died as a result of the accident, "false" if there is no evidence of lives being lost, "unclear" otherwise.

定義: Where applicable, this field indicates if the incident caused harm to any of the economic sectors designated by the U.S. government as critical infrastructure.

定義: "Yes" if the AI system(s) involved in the accident were being used by the public sector or for the administration of public goods (for example, public transportation). "No" if the system(s) were being used in the private sector or for commercial purposes (for example, a ride-sharing company), on the other.

定義: "Expert" if users with special training or technical expertise were the ones meant to benefit from the AI system(s)’ operation; "Amateur" if the AI systems were primarily meant to benefit the general public or untrained users.

定義: The degree to which the AI system(s) functions independently from human intervention. "High" means there is no human involved in the system action execution; "Medium" means the system generates a decision and a human oversees the resulting action; "low" means the system generates decision-support output and a human makes a decision and executes an action.

定義: Where relevant, indicates whether the AI system(s) was embedded into or tightly associated with specific types of hardware.

定義: Indicates which, if any, of the following types of AI failure describe the incident: "Specification," i.e. the system's behavior did not align with the true intentions of its designer, operator, etc; "Robustness," i.e. the system operated unsafely because of features or changes in its environment, or in the inputs the system received; "Assurance," i.e. the system could not be adequately monitored or controlled during operation.

定義: A plain-language description of the incident in one paragraph or less.

定義: A one-sentence description of the incident.

定義: A brief description of the AI system(s) involved in the incident, including the system’s intended function, the context in which it was deployed, and any available details about the algorithms, hardware, and training data involved in the system.

定義: The date the incident began.

定義: The date the incident ended.

定義: The stated or estimated financial cost of the incident, if reported.

定義: Relevant laws under which entities involved in the incident may face legal liability as a result of the incident.

定義: A brief description of the data that the AI system(s) used or were trained on.
