Abstract


This paper analyzes the right to explanation in the context of the General Data Protection Law (LGPD), focusing on Article 20, and its correlation with the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The increasing digitalization and the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) systems in automated decision-making highlight the need for greater transparency and accountability in the processing of personal data. The LGPD, enacted in 2018 and in force since 2020, incorporated provisions on the right to explanation and review of automated decisions, although it did not establish clear criteria for its implementation.
