To resume, it's an obligation to explain to citizens the administrative decisions taken concerning them with the help of an algorithm, and specifically to explain it in plain language, listing all the data used for it, and all the steps taken.
As you can imagine, it's not a request that can possibly be fulfilled in the case of a neural network, by which I can only conclude that the use of neural networks is itself illegal here.
But of course the state being sovereign, it doesn't really have to care about following its own laws if it doesn't really want to.
Also, what is particularly impressive in this case, is that the initial target of this law, the algorithm(s) behind the (now mandatory) college application platform, got at the last moment an exemption from it !
(There's also in parallel the question of the source code, the publication of which was promised, but only tiny parts of which have been - 7 years later - and now the new promise is "by 2029", under an excuse that is basically "security by obscurity".)
Or how the tax administration just went and started to use a neural network on private banking data anyway.
Or how Nice is experimenting illegally with neural network-helped video surveillance.
Or how Paris has "experimented" with neural network-helped video surveillance for the Olympic Games... will be very interesting to see what parts of this "experimentation" - that did specifically get in theory temporary legal exemptions - will stick around even after that period is over.
