Public Law EP19: Transparency in AI

Transparency in AI - The legal principles governing decision-making by public authorities and regulators In this edition of the Herbert Smith Freehills Public Law Podcast, Andrew Lidbetter and Hannah Lau explore the issue of transparency in AI-driven decision-making which involves AI public bodies and regulators. With AI being used increasingly to inform regulatory and public body decisions, we discuss the challenge that a potential lack of transparency poses and explore the current legal position. We unpack how pre-established legal principles might assist (or may need to evolve) in holding regulators and public bodies accountable when it comes to transparency in decision-making which involves AI. Join us as we reflect on some of the legal complexities in this ever-developing area.
