The increasing prevalence of algorithmic decision making (ADM) by public authorities raises a number of challenges for administrative law in the form of technical decisions about the necessary metrics for evaluating such systems, their opacity, the scalability of errors, their use of correlation as opposed to causation and so on. If administrative law is to provide the necessary guidance to enable optimal use of such systems, there are a number of ways in which it will need to become more nuanced and advanced. However, if it is able to rise to this challenge, administrative law has the potential not only to do useful work itself in controlling ADM, but also to support the work of the Information Commissioner’s Office and provide guidance on the interpretation of concepts such as ‘meaningful information’ and ‘proportionality’ within the General Data Protection Regulation.

重新思考算法决策的行政法

公共当局日益普及的算法决策 (ADM) 以技术决策的形式对行政法提出了许多挑战，这些挑战是关于评估此类系统的必要指标、它们的不透明性、错误的可扩展性、它们对相关性的使用，而不是因果关系等等。如果行政法要为优化使用此类系统提供必要的指导，则需要通过多种方式使其变得更加细致和先进。然而，如果它能够应对这一挑战，行政法不仅有可能在控制 ADM 方面做有益的工作，
