Right of Explanation
The right of a person subject to an automated decision to receive meaningful information about the logic involved + significance + envisaged consequences. Implied by GDPR Articles 13–15 + 22 (the legal extent is contested). The EU AI Act Article 86 grants a clearer right of explanation for affected persons of high-risk AI decisions.
