Interested Party
A person or entity affected by an AI system decision or activity.
How the laws define this
Both sources establish that the scope of impacted stakeholders extends beyond direct users to encompass non-interacting individuals affected by an artificial intelligence system. At their core, both definitions recognize that individuals who never directly interact with an AI service can still fall under recognized categories. They diverge, however, in their scope and regulatory application. ISO/IEC 42001:2023 adopts a broad, management-level perspective, defining an interested party as any person or organization that can affect, be affected by, or perceive itself to be affected by a decision or activity related to the AI system. In contrast, Provvedimento 11 April 2023 - Misure cautelari e ordine temporaneo contro ChatGPT (Garante per la protezione dei dati personali) applies a specific data protection standard, narrowing the focus to active users of the ChatGPT service and individuals whose personal data was identified in training corpora, classifying these persons specifically as data subjects entitled to rights under data protection law.
Synthesised from the 2 statutory definitions below. Each one is quoted in full, with its source.
