Key Points

  • Clarify and define the concept of transparency within European Union artificial intelligence regulatory frameworks by comparing the GDPR and the Artificial Intelligence Act with computer science literature.
  • Conducted a comparative legal analysis of transparency mandates within the General Data Protection Regulation (Article 5(1)(a)) and the Artificial Intelligence Act (Article 13(1)).
  • Compared statutory transparency obligations for high-risk artificial intelligence systems with standard technical definitions in computer science literature.
  • Identified that legal transparency remains an elusive and intuitively used term without a singular, firm statutory definition across EU law.
  • Developed a three-part analytical framework establishing that appropriate regulatory transparency requires distinct applications of simplicity, observation, and explanation.
