Artificial Intelligence has a vast influence on our society and is therefore described as a pervasive and disruptive technology comparable with the application of electricity or the combustion engine. But it is more, AI can take decisions autonomously, can change facts into fakes and therefore change human behavior. Can we deal with those changes? And can we regulate the applications of AI in our world? The EU Commission thinks it can be done. That will be the subject of this seminar.
Draft EU AI regulation: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/HTML/?uri=CELEX:52021PC0206&from=EN
