Tbf that leads to the problem of:

Company/Individual makes program that is in no way meant for making management decision.

Someone else comes and deploys that program to make management decisions.

The ones that made that program couldn't stop the ones that deployed it from deploying it.

Even if the maker aimed to make a decision-making program, and marketed it as so. Whoever deployed it is ultimately the responsible for it. As long as the maker doesn't fake tests or certifications of course, I'm sure that would violate many laws.

The premise is that a computer must never make a management decision. Making a program capable of management decisons already failed. The deployment and use of that program to that end is already built upon that failure.

I believe those who deploy the machines should be responsible in the first place. The corporations who make/sell those machines should be accountable if they deceptively and intentionally program those machines to act maliciously or in somebody else's interest.
