Artificial intelligence is one of the key pillars of the new technological revolution, known as the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Its use is no longer confined to the private sector, but has also expanded to the public sector, where artificial intelligence algorithms are increasingly employed to support administrative decision-making. This development has given rise to a new form of public decision-making commonly referred to as “algorithmic administrative decision-making,” which has brought about a fundamental transformation in the public sector in the countries that have adopted it, due to the features and advantages resulting from its implementation, which may help enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of administrative functions. However, this implementation raises several technical and legal challenges, which led us to address the subject of this research paper. The paper seeks, first, to highlight the technical limitations affecting the process of algorithmic decision-making, and then to examine the possible legal solutions introduced by the European Commission through the adoption of the world’s first comprehensive regulatory framework governing artificial intelligence, namely the “Artificial Intelligence Act (European Union) 2024/1689.” Keywords: algorithmic decision, Artificial Intelligence Act, algorithms.
