📋 The EU AI Act ((EU) 2024/1689) is part of the EU’s “New Legislative Framework” for regulating product safety. As a result, providers of high-risk AI systems must conduct a conformity assessment before placing the AI system on the market or putting it into service. 🔍The AI Act outlines two assessment methods: first, a “self-assessment” based on internal control (Article 43(1)(a) AIA), and second, an evaluation involving a notified body (Article 43(1)(b) AIA). 📊 The chart below offers a preliminary view of when each of these procedures is applicable. ☎️ If you have any questions or need further clarification, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Still not law, but business leaders can already get ready for the EU AI Act. This can become an opportunity to learn about Responsible AI, not because it's a law but because is the responsible thing to do 💪 If AI initiatives are 👉responsible by design👈 there is not much more effort you need to put into. Make sure you address AI #governance and #risk evaluation in the initial stages and you are already in a great position to #succeed with AI 🚀 #AIAdvisory #AIops #AIstrategy #ResponsibleAI #EUAIAct #AIforstartups

Hope you find it useful! ✔ What is the AI Act, and who does it affect? ✔What does the Act require of organisations? ✔When will it come into force? ✔What penalties and enforcement will the Act introduce? ✔Which AI systems and use cases it classifies as high-risk? ✔How can organisations comply with the Act? ✔How can organisations implement AI governance frameworks for it? https://lnkd.in/dfB7E47s #AIAct #EUAIAct #AIcompliance

#AI #Act: MEPs endorsed today at committee level the provisional agreement on the Artificial Intelligence Act Next steps The text awaits a formal adoption in an upcoming Parliament plenary session and final Council endorsement. It will be fully applicable 24 months after entry into force, except bans on prohibited practises, which will apply 6 months after the entry into force; codes of practise (nine months after entry into force); general-purpose AI rules including governance (12 months after entry into force); and obligations for high-risk systems (36 months).

Today marks a pivotal moment in the evolution of artificial intelligence regulation. Also the #Council has approved the groundbreaking #ArtificialIntelligenceAct, the first of its kind globally. This legislation employs a 'risk-based' approach: the greater the potential harm to society, the stricter the rules. Aimed at harmonizing AI rules across the EU, this law promises to foster the development and adoption of #safe, #trustworthy AI systems in both the private and public sectors. By ensuring the respect of fundamental rights and stimulating AI investment and innovation, the AI Act sets a new global standard for AI regulation. The AI Act holds immense potential and extensive impact for #HealthInnovation. It encourages the use of AI to enhance patient care, streamline healthcare processes, and drive medical breakthroughs, all while maintaining stringent safety and ethical standards. However, these benefits come with challenges. This regulation may slow down the development and deployment of innovative AI solutions in healthcare due to compliance costs and administrative burdens. Balancing innovation with safety will require careful navigation to avoid stifling the very advancements that could revolutionize healthcare. With this regulation, Europe can lead the way on how the future of AI technologies might look like for the all planet. However, regulation should come as a support to a broader framework that is: 🤝 #Inclusive (starts from stakeholder engagment at all levels), 🤲 addresses #Inequalities (meaning equatable and safe access for everyone), 💪 ensures a #flexible and #agile #Innovation ecosystem (we do not need to only regulate, we need to co-create) This is definitely not the end but just the begin of building that ecosystem! #ArtificialIntelligence #AIAct #HealthInnovation #EURegulation #AI #Healthcare #Innovation #Policy

📢 EU gives final green light to the first worldwide rules on AI 📢 ✅ The EU Council has approved the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Act, establishing the world’s first comprehensive AI rules.

🌟 Fact Friday: Do you know how to prepare now for the new AI Act? 🌟 Exciting news in the world of artificial intelligence! On December 8, 2023, the European institutions reached a provisional political agreement on a groundbreaking legislation: the EU's AI Act. Anticipated to be published in the Official Journal of the European Union this Spring 2024, this Act marks a significant step forward in regulating AI technologies. What does this mean for organisations using or planning to use AI systems? It's time to prepare! Here's a snapshot of what you need to know: 🔍 Risk Classification - the higher the risk, the stricter the rules: The AI Act classifies AI systems based on their risk levels. Unacceptable risks, such as social scoring systems and manipulative AI, are prohibited. Minimal-risk AI applications remain unregulated, covering the majority of current AI systems in the EU market. Most medical AI systems (in terms of MDR) automatically fall into the high-risk category. 📝 Obligations for Developers: Developers of high-risk AI systems bear the majority of obligations. Whether based in the EU or a third country, those intending to market or deploy high-risk AI systems in the EU must comply with the new rules. 🤝 Responsibilities for Users: Users, deploying AI systems in a professional capacity, have obligations as well, though less than providers. Users must understand their responsibilities under the AI Act. 💡 Promoting innovation: The AI Act promotes "regulatory sandboxes" and "real-world testing," established by national authorities to develop and train innovative AI before placement on the market. As the AI landscape evolves, compliance with ethical and regulatory principles becomes a top priority. Stay ahead of the curve by familiarising yourself with the upcoming EU AI Act and its implications. https://lnkd.in/g7Jugax4 #CAIDX #EUAIAct #ArtificialIntelligence #EthicalAI #Regulation #FactFriday

🌟 Exciting News Alert! 🌟 Today marks a significant milestone as the European Parliament has given the green light to the groundbreaking Europe’s AI Act with an overwhelming majority. This marks the world's inaugural endeavor to regulate AI systems through a risk-based lens, prioritizing scrutiny based on the level of risk posed by an AI application. The primary goal? To safeguard fundamental human rights in the realm of artificial intelligence. With the law primed to take effect later this year, it's poised to become a beacon not only for Europe but for the global community grappling with AI regulation. As the US lacks similar legislation, the EU's AI Act could serve as a pivotal global standard, setting the stage for how AI is governed worldwide. Under the AI Act, each EU member state will establish its own AI watchdog. In #Ireland, the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment will spearhead the development of the national implementation plan for this pivotal legislation. In light of this game-changing development, it's imperative for organizations to assess their AI governance, policies, and strategies. The implications of the AI Act are profound, and readiness for compliance is paramount. Is your company equipped to navigate the landscape of the EU AI Act? Let's ensure we're prepared for this transformative shift in AI regulation! 🚀 #euregulations #europeanunion #ai #ireland #DETE #AIRegulation #EUAIAct #ComplianceReady
