If there's a way to objectively evaluate quality of output, that seems sufficient. It's not like a building inspection where it's a component-based evaluation. The results need to be reasonably and verifiably reliable to an appropriate degree, but the courts don't need to care how that is accomplished.

But that's the whole problem. If you had something that calculates the the thing algorithm is supposed to do in a better way than the algorithm actually does it, you could just use that as the algorithm.
