The word algorithm is now as negatively occupied as name Darth Vader. Algorithms are granted power, sometimes even "UnheimlicheMacht". They "attack" and become Mindestenspotenziellen Bedrohungerklärt, to rulers over people and destinies, to "empires".
The ScheidendeBundesjustizminister Heiko Maas refore demanded in summer (not first times) EinTransparenzgebot for algorithms. As DasHandelsblatt reports, Federal scientific ministry also recognizes a "need for furr Regelungenim area of Algorithmenkontrolle". This is opinion of service, which is also available online.
On 16 pages, authors fassendie legal situation in Germany and currently diskutierteIdeen for additional regulation of Internet companies whose algorithms are supposedly so incredibly powerful. Sindallerdings only means "algorithms in Media field", as derTitel of work says. The evaluators explicitly put "attention to search algorithms, for example, from Google UndNewsfeed algorithms from social networks such as Facebook OderLinkedIn", as se are "central access intermediaries Web content" and "one of most important sources for Kulturellenund political opinion-forming "of" outstanding Relevance ". "The potential for influencing and abusing Dendort is greatest in algorithms used."
It's just about Facebook and GoogleDassNutzer does not know what factors your search results, advertisements and newsfeed sorting in what Maßebeeinflussen and what result would be if re were no filters or nurvom users mselves. It is a question of dasSpannungsfeld between business secrets of companies and lack of transparency that führenkann to disregarding of users.
The concentration Google and Facebook may seem narrower at first glance, but is ultimately comprehensible. AlgorithmischeEntscheidungsfindung (ADM, algorithmic decision making) Findetzwar long ago also held elsewhere, at credit and tenure, both police and in court for example. The Bertelsmann-Stiftungviele presents case studies in working paper "When people rate humans". However, author Konrad Lischka also points out that such processes in Germany are "not yet so present".
Google and Facebookaber are re. And European governments and authorities habenmittlerweile understood that y has been regulating se companies for years, stattvorab a regulatory framework. In just beginnendenZeitalter of what is commonly called artificial intelligence (KI) Genanntwird and has a lot to do with self-learn programs and ADM, this should not happen again.
Back cover for a AlgorithmusgesetzThe conclusion of DerGutachter is: current situation in Telemedia, broadcasting, competition and data protection law makes users of großenInternetdienste at least "non-defenceless". In 2018 EU Datenschutzgrundverordnungetwa, article 22, paragraph 1 states: "The person concerned has right not to be subject exclusively to a AutomatisiertenVerarbeitung – including profiling – BeruhendenEntscheidung to RechtlicheWirkung unfolds or erheblichbeeinträchtigt m in a similar way. "
"However," writes Bundestag experts, "This work has shown that in achieving goal of creating knowledge-UndMachtungleichgewicht between user and service provider Aufzulösenund at same time more transparency and user autonomy, Algorithmenspezifische legislation is also a viable way of Seinkann. " Whoever will be successor of Heiko Maas, could on opinion to propose a geartetesAlgorithmusgesetz as well as always.
