AI Proposal: Paving the way for industrial artificial intelligence?

Think Digital!

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the key drivers in the data and platform economy. The use of AI can, for example, optimize production processes and raise them to a new level of efficiency. It makes a significant contribution to resource efficiency and sustainability, of which the electro and digital industry is a key enabler.

Think Digital!

On April 21st the European Commission has presented its proposal for a Regulation on Artificial Intelligence (“AI Act”). The AI proposal aims to create a legal framework for so-called “high-risk AI systems”, regulating their placing on the market and putting into service in the EU. To enable the full potential for industrial AI, the legislator should carefully assess regulatory gaps when addressing AI as a technology in its entirety. Particularly, in the case of AI embedded in products, potential risks regarding product safety and security are already limited by existing regulation and functional constraints. We want to discuss with the EU Commission, the European Parliament, and industry the right way forward for AI made in Europe.

In a series of high-level political events in Brussels throughout 2021, we will bring together representatives from the European Institutions, think tanks, research institutions, civil society and the private sector.
