An amending law buried inside the general informatization code, easy to miss: new Article 7-1 of the Law "On Informatization" bans sole reliance on AI system conclusions for any legally significant decision touching human rights and freedoms. No AI-specific statute exists to flag it — the duty binds private deployers of rights-affecting automated decisions through a two-paragraph insertion.
