20. Principal Risks and Responses
| Risk | Impact | Response |
|---|---|---|
| Wrong booking or order | Cost and schedule harm | Outcome verification, final confirmation, cancellation and compensation process |
| Changed website | Execution failure | API first, change detection, isolated retry |
| Prompt injection | Leakage or wrong action | Separate content, restrict tools and authority |
| Node compromise | Privacy breach | Device authentication, isolation, short authority, remote revocation |
| Kiosk residual data | Exposure to next user | Reset, local encryption, automatic deletion |
| Voice or wearable error | Wrong judgment | Confirmation, multiple signals, no diagnosis |
| Check-in false alarm | Unnecessary report and anxiety | Staged retry, chosen contact order, measurement |
| AI replaces relationships | Deeper isolation | Prefer real contact, usage and stop controls, field evidence |
| Robot collision | Physical or property damage | Limits, physical stop, standards, insurance, staged trial |
| Household surveillance | Privacy loss | Default non-collection, local processing, channel consent, deletion |
| Excess guardian control | Loss of self-determination | Granular authority, review records, withdrawal |
| Data-reward pressure | Exploitation | Separate consent, fair reward, minimum collection |
| Reward fraud | Higher cost | Outcome proof, anomaly detection, dispute review |
| Platform policy change | Reduced mobile capability | Standards, phone, watch, kiosk, and secure-execution alternatives |
| Uneven helper quality | Safety and trust loss | Role checks, training, evaluation, qualification limits |
20.1 When automation must stop
Stop when intent is unclear and cost or legal effect may occur; unrequested data transfer is required; a site asks for greater authority or outside contact; results cannot be verified and duplication is possible; medical, legal, or financial judgment is required; the user expresses anxiety, confusion, or refusal; a companion lacks grounds to interpret non-response; or robot sensing, braking, or connectivity falls outside safety limits.
