Using your knowledge of how neural networks work and the GDPR principles outlined above, write a white paper that addresses the regulator’s concerns. Recommend changes where necessary and defend existing practices where applicable. Note that proposing remedies to one principle may violate another. In order to adequately address each aspect of the prompt, you will need to support your ideas with research from your readings. You must include citations for sources that you used.

1. Explain the basics of neural networks and how they work by addressing the following:
   1. Provide a brief explanation of how neural networks work. How do the input layer, hidden layer, and output layer interact to classify objects? Consider the fact that your target audience may have limited technical knowledge.

2. Evaluate how neural networks are used to create personalization by addressing the following:
   1. How are neural networks utilized to aid in the personalization of the user experience?
   2. What ethical concerns can this raise? Consider hidden biases that may arise in using a “black box” classification system, where the algorithms are unknown to the user.

3. Analyze how portions of the GDPR affect personalization by addressing the following:
   1. Summarize the portions of the GDPR that affect personalization. Be sure to consider at least four of the following in your answer: transparency, purpose limitation, data minimization, accuracy, storage limitation, confidentiality, and accountability.

4. Assess how the GDPR is affecting the company’s practices by addressing the following:
   1. What specific legal concerns may arise from your company’s use of neural networks as a classifier to personalize the user experience?
   2. Is not collecting data a possibility for the company’s business model? Defend your answer.

5. Propose adaptations to the company’s practices to act in compliance with the GDPR by addressing the following:
   1. What are the current trends (best practices) in artificial intelligence and machine learning aimed at preserving privacy?
   2. What changes to the way the company collects, stores, and employs user data do you propose to comply with GDPR? Defend existing practices where applicable
