These provisions require deployers to inform individuals in advance when AI systems will be used, to provide a meaningful opportunity to opt out of automated decision-making in favor of human review, and to notify individuals after a decision is made of their right to contest and appeal that decision. [...] Without opt-out and appeal, automated systems risk becoming unreviewable gatekeepers. By contrast, S.1169-A ensures that AI remains a decision-support tool rather than an unaccountable authority.
