AI Incident Handoff

AI incident records should preserve evidence packets for review. Honesty note: simplified classroom tort model; jurisdictions vary; contested facts and standards matter; the pinned first step states the as-of date; not legal advice.

AI incident records need a handoff path

The stated process captures system, event, claimed harm, use label, evidence packet, and human review as separate records.

system→event→evidence→review\text{system}\to\text{event}\to\text{evidence}\to\text{review}

Example incident packet

The toy packet separates the AI system from the event record and from the claimed harm label.

separate system, event, harm\text{separate system, event, harm}

The flow preserves review order

An AI incident handoff keeps system, event, claimed harm, use label, and evidence separate. The map has 6 nodes.

Summary

AI incident data should preserve provenance and evidence packets before any tort analysis happens.
