알고리즘의 취급에 대한 법적 논의

An algorithm is a program of logic, which has bias due to being developed by humans. Algorithm design is based on freedom, of both individuals and businesses. Algorithms can also be treated as business secrets; thus, algorithms should be eligible for protection from disclosure. Algorithms which employ personal information may prompt inquiry for explanation of this use from affected individuals. This is based on the individual’s right of informational self-determination, which enables an individual to control the disclosure or use of his or her own personal information. An algorithms’ bias should not infringe any constitution or laws. It is very hard to detect an algorithms’ bias because of the complexity and abstraction of algorithms. Balance between creating and protecting algorithms is important because algorithms are intellectual property. When there is reasonable doubt that an algorithm violates an individual’s rights, the algorithm is presumed illegal: the algorithm’s designer bears the burden of proving the algorithms’ lack of bias.
