Individuals subject to solely automated, significant decision-making have a right to receive “meaningful information about the logic involved”. The Dutch DPA observes automated decision-making is rapidly increasing, along with a growing integration of LLM's into workplace software. The black-box nature of some of these systems poses serious risks to transparency. In light of this, the Dutch DPA is developing guidance on the Right to an Explanation that will be published later this year. In this workshop, we wish to consult the main points of our draft guidance with the CPDP audience. The workshop will consist of a short presentation of our guidance, followed by a workshop where participants will design their own explanation for an algorithmic decision.
