#EU #DSA #Meta #SocialMedia #Transparency: "We wanted to dig into these announcements and how they stack up against the spirit of these new rules and against best practices and expectations for platform accountability and responsible AI. Here we draw on our research on AI transparency, YouTube’s User Controls efficiency, and our best practice guide towards Responsible Recommending.
In our research on AI Transparency in Practice, we revealed that one of the reasons why there is little intrinsic motivation to implement a useful level of transparency in AI systems is the lack of external pressure, e.g. the lack of legal transparency requirements, or rather the perception of a lack. “Compliance with legal frameworks as well as audits'' were therefore the least cited motivations for developers and deployers of AI systems to implement transparency. This seems to be changing with the DSA and other regulatory requirements on the horizon."
