2. reminds me of the 2016 French Act for a Digital Republic : (scroll down to 3.1.(g) Public sector) https://www.mondaq.com/france/technology/1059760/artificial-intelligence-comparative-guide https://www.mondaq.com/france/technology/1059760/artificial-... > whenever an individual decision is taken on the basis (even partially) of an algorithm, the administration must [...] explain [using easy to understand language]†, at the request of the individual, how the relevant algorithm works [...], by providing the following information: the degree and mode of contribution of the algorithm to the decision making; the data processed and its sources; the processing settings and their weighting applied to the situation of the data subject; and the operations carried out by the processing. † a very important detail that this translation for some reason omits ?? Now, something that has been bugging me since then, especially in the «AI» context that was also being discussed more or less at the same time by the legislators, is that so far this is impossible to do for neural network based programs, since the final program is not based on any algorithm (as commonly understood), or at least not one that even the programmers themselves could understand, much less distill into a commonly intelligible form !
