Download or read book EU Policy and Legal Framework for Artificial Intelligence Robotics and Related Technologies The AI Act written by Nikos Th. Nikolinakos and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-07-06 with total page 746 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Artificial Intelligence (AI) can benefit our society and economy, but also brings with it new challenges and raises legal and ethical questions. According to the author of this comprehensive analysis, it is imperative to ensure that AI is developed and applied in an appropriate legal and regulatory framework that promotes innovation and investment and, at the same time, addresses the risks associated with certain uses of AI-related technologies. Essential to understanding the relationship between policy and law, this book traces the evolution of EU policy on artificial intelligence and robotics, focusing in particular on the EU’s ethical framework for AI, which defines trust as a prerequisite for ensuring a human-centric approach. The main part of the book provides a thorough and systematic analysis of the Commission’s 2021 proposed AI Act, which establishes harmonised rules for the development, placement on the market and use of AI systems in the EU. The author painstakingly compares the Commission’s proposed AI Act with the numerous “compromise” proposals of the Council of the European Union, leading to the final version of the Council’s AI Act (general approach) and its formal adoption on 6 December 2022. The author also examines with extraordinary detail the amendments proposed by the relevant committees and political groups of the European Parliament, revealing the position the Parliament is likely to adopt in the forthcoming negotiations with the Commission and the Council on the text of the AI Act. Numerous legislative and policy documents are presented in detail, while the analysis also considers the comments made by all interested parties (e.g. the European Commission, Council of the European Union, European Parliament, governmental organisations, national competent authorities, and stakeholders/actors with different/conflicting interests, such as corporations, business and consumer associations, civil society and other non-profit organisations). In the course of its in-depth analysis, this book will provide readers with crucial insight into the reasons behind the European Institutions’ different approaches and the often contradictory interests of stakeholders. Because the policy arguments are carefully balanced and drafted with scrupulous care, this volume will establish itself as a reference resource to be consulted for years to come.

Download or read book The Brussels Effect written by Anu Bradford and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-01-27 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many observers, the European Union is mired in a deep crisis. Between sluggish growth; political turmoil following a decade of austerity politics; Brexit; and the rise of Asian influence, the EU is seen as a declining power on the world stage. Columbia Law professor Anu Bradford argues the opposite in her important new book The Brussels Effect: the EU remains an influential superpower that shapes the world in its image. By promulgating regulations that shape the international business environment, elevating standards worldwide, and leading to a notable Europeanization of many important aspects of global commerce, the EU has managed to shape policy in areas such as data privacy, consumer health and safety, environmental protection, antitrust, and online hate speech. And in contrast to how superpowers wield their global influence, the Brussels Effect - a phrase first coined by Bradford in 2012- absolves the EU from playing a direct role in imposing standards, as market forces alone are often sufficient as multinational companies voluntarily extend the EU rule to govern their global operations. The Brussels Effect shows how the EU has acquired such power, why multinational companies use EU standards as global standards, and why the EU's role as the world's regulator is likely to outlive its gradual economic decline, extending the EU's influence long into the future.

Download or read book The EU AI Act written by Marco Almada and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European Union (“EU”) Artificial Intelligence Act (the AI Act) is a legal medley. Under the banner of risk-based regulation, the AI Act combines two repertoires of European Union (EU) law, namely product safety and fundamental rights protection. Like a medley, the AI Act attempts to combine the best features of both repertoires. But like a medley, the AI Act risks delivering insufficient levels of both product safety or fundamental rights protection. This article describes these issues by reference to three classical issues of law and technology. Some adjustments to the text and spirit of the AI Act are suggested.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Artificial Intelligence remains a complex and rapidly evolving technology. Since the second edition of this book, Generative AI models such as ChatGPT have made a seismic impact on the AI industry and society as a whole. Legislative and policy initiatives move closer to finalisation, particularly the EU's groundbreaking Artificial Intelligence Act which is likely to have a global impact on regulation of AI and machine learning systems. In a fast moving specialist area, it is essential to keep pace. If you are lost and need clear direction, 'Artificial Intelligence - The Practical Legal Issues' will guide you through the policy updates and implications of existing AI technologies and provide a practical and easily digestible path to the real issues you need to consider as a legal practitioner. This book contains a grounding of what differentiates artificially intelligent systems from traditional technology and explains the differences between AI, Machine Learning and Deep Learning, and what makes Generative AI (and by association, foundation models) so different. Understanding what AI systems can and cannot do is also essential to developing a clear legal awareness of the technology. From these introductory foundations, you'll learn how the deployment of AI technology creates issues and risks that need to be considered carefully and that permeate across causation, intellectual property ownership, confidentiality and data protection, recruitment and even criminal law.

Download or read book Analysis of the Preliminary AI Standardisation Work Plan in Support of the AI Act written by and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides an analysis of the standardisation roadmap in support of the AI Act (AIA). The analysis covers standards considered by CEN-CENELEC Joint Technical Committee (JTC) 21 on Artificial Intelligence (AI) in January 2023, evaluating their coverage of the requirements laid out in the legal text. We found that the international standards currently considered already partially cover the AIA requirements for trustworthy AI defined in the regulation. Furthermore, many of the identified remaining gaps are already planned to be addressed by dedicated European standardisation. In order to contribute to the debate on the AI standards and support the work of standardisers, this document presents an independent expert-based analysis and recommendation, by highlighting areas deserving further attention of standardisers, and pointing, when possible, to additional relevant standards or directly providing possible additions to the scope of future European standards in support of the AI Act.

Download or read book Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence and the European Union AI Act written by Johann Laux and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Governments, international organisations, corporations, and other institutions around the globe are drawing up frameworks for 'trustworthy' Artificial Intelligence (AI). This effort follows an explicit strategic premise: raise the trustworthiness of AI and people will trust it more, thus use it more, and unlock the technology's economic and social potential. With its proposed AI Act, the European Union (EU) has put itself at the forefront of this regulatory development. Adopting a risk-based approach towards AI, the EU chose to understand trustworthiness of AI in terms of the acceptability of its risks. This conflation of trustworthiness with acceptability of risk invites further reflection. Based on a narrative systematic literature review on institutional trust and the use of AI in the public sector, this paper argues that the EU adopted a simplistic conceptualisation of trust and is overselling its regulatory ambition. The AI Act is a proposal for technocratic risk-regulation which by itself is unlikely to effectively signal trustworthiness or raise actual levels of trust in citizens. This paper makes four contributions. First, it reconstructs the conflation of 'trustworthiness' with the 'acceptability of risks' in the EU's AI policy. Second, with a view on the extreme heterogeneity of trust research, the paper develops a prescriptive set of variables for reviewing trust research in the context of AI. Third, it then uses those variables as a structure for a narrative review of prior research on trust and trustworthiness in AI in the public sector. Fourth, the paper relates the findings of the review to the EU's AI policy. It states the uncertain prospects for the AI Act to be successful in engineering citizen's trust. There remains a threat of misalignment between levels of actual trust and the trustworthiness of applied AI. The conflation of 'trustworthiness' with the 'acceptability of risks' in the AI Act will thus be shown to be inadequate.

Download or read book Oxford Handbook of Ethics of AI written by Markus D. Dubber and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-06-30 with total page 1000 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume tackles a quickly-evolving field of inquiry, mapping the existing discourse as part of a general attempt to place current developments in historical context; at the same time, breaking new ground in taking on novel subjects and pursuing fresh approaches. The term "A.I." is used to refer to a broad range of phenomena, from machine learning and data mining to artificial general intelligence. The recent advent of more sophisticated AI systems, which function with partial or full autonomy and are capable of tasks which require learning and 'intelligence', presents difficult ethical questions, and has drawn concerns from many quarters about individual and societal welfare, democratic decision-making, moral agency, and the prevention of harm. This work ranges from explorations of normative constraints on specific applications of machine learning algorithms today-in everyday medical practice, for instance-to reflections on the (potential) status of AI as a form of consciousness with attendant rights and duties and, more generally still, on the conceptual terms and frameworks necessarily to understand tasks requiring intelligence, whether "human" or "A.I."
