Decades ago, it was difficult to imagine a reality in which artificial intelligence (AI) could penetrate every corner of our lives to monitor our innermost selves for commercial interests. Within a few decades, the private sector has seen a wild proliferation of AI systems, many of which are more powerful and penetrating than anticipated. In many cases, machine-learning-based AI systems have become “the power behind the throne,” tracking user activities and making fateful decisions through predictive analysis of personal information. However, machine-learning algorithms can be technically complex and legally claimed as trade secrets, creating an opacity that hinders oversight of AI systems. Accordingly, many AI-based services and products have been found to be invasive, manipulative, and biased, eroding privacy rules and human rights in modern society.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly used to make important decisions, from university admissions selections to loan determinations to the distribution

Urbanisme, aménagement, environnement, santé, sport…, il n’est pas un projet local qui échappe à l’inflation normative et règlementaire. Le constat n’est pas nouveau mais la situation ne s’améliore pas en dépit des soi-disant chocs de simplification promis par les gouvernements successifs. Les procédures kafkaïennes imposées aux élus pour obtenir un cofinancement national (DETR, DSIL…) ou européen – et la rigidité des critères d’attribution décidés par l’État, la mise en place récente d’une gouvernance complexe dans le domaine du sport, l’avalanche de contraintes nouvelles comme celles générées pour les cantines scolaires par les lois «Egalim» de 2018, «Agec» en 2020 et «Climat et résilience» en 2021, sans tenir compte des capacités techniques et financières des collectivités – nuisent à la fois à l’équité et à l’efficience comme à la performance de l’action locale.
