Right of correction is the individual’s side of signal access: recourse when the signal about you is false. If an institution publishes something materially false about you, or an AI system propagates a damaging error, you should be able to inspect the material claims, contest factual errors, append correction where appropriate, know the source, and seek adjudication.

Correction, not erasure

It is deliberately not a right to erase legitimate criticism or unflattering truth — only a right against known falsehood. Its most important edge is temporal: in an AI world a false claim can propagate essentially forever, reproduced by authoritative systems long after it has been shown wrong, so the right specifically includes stopping known falsehoods from being continuously regenerated. It complements material signal and the recourse path — a participant needs access not only to the signals that affect them but to a way of correcting the signals that misrepresent them.
