2021: The Hdmaal
Perhaps the most operationally demanding article requires that any AI system used in a signatory jurisdiction must keep a human-readable log of its decision-making for 36 months. This log must include:
Critically, Article 23 forbids “black box” arbitration. If a company uses a proprietary third-party model (e.g., OpenAI’s GPT-4 or Google’s Gemini), the API provider must expose decision logs to the downstream user. This single article spurred a $6 billion market for “explainable AI” tools in 2022-2023. the hdmaal 2021
To appreciate the gravity of the 2021 meeting, we must look at the preceding 18 months. Critically, Article 23 forbids “black box” arbitration
In 2019, the heavy-duty aftermarket was stable, reliant on just-in-time (JIT) inventory systems. By March 2020, the pandemic shut down ports in Shanghai and Mumbai. Throughout late 2020, Australian fleets faced wait times of 6–9 months for critical parts like brake drums, air compressors, and turbochargers. To appreciate the gravity of the 2021 meeting,
The industry needed a new playbook. Manufacturers needed to reshore safety stock, and distributors needed digital visibility. This was the desperate backdrop against which the HDMAAL 2021 was organized.
Article 23’s log retention requirement is almost impossible for open-source, decentralized models (e.g., a fine-tuned Llama 3 running on a volunteer’s laptop). Critics argue the HDMAAL 2021 inadvertently favors big tech. In response, the 2025 “Geneva Clarification” exempts non-commercial research models and models with fewer than 10,000 monthly active users.
The International Conference on High Dimensional Data Analysis, Machine Learning, and Algorithms (HDMAAL) 2021 was a significant virtual gathering that brought together researchers, data scientists, and industry professionals to address one of modern statistics and computing’s most pressing challenges: making sense of data with very many variables (high dimensionality).
