Artificial Intelligence Is Setting Up the Internet for a Huge Clash With Europe by Cade Metz via @WIRED

The European Union's recent General Data Protection Regulation has a clause that restricts "automated individual decision making" and provides a "right to explanation." But "automated individual decision making" is what neural networks do, and complicated machine learning algorithms defy easy explanation.

I can see the problem - it's not always so easy to explain how a decision was made.
