Article 7-1 bars an AI-based information resource or system from harming a person's life, health, freedom, honor, or dignity, and bars a legally significant decision from resting exclusively on such a resource's or system's conclusions. Neither paragraph names a log, a record, an event-recording capability or an audit trail, and neither requires demonstrating, proving or producing on demand something only a record could show.
