Europe can become a global leader in artificial intelligence, but only if it protects its citizens and involves workers in the regulatory and deployment process. In that regard, the European Commission’s recent draft regulation leaves much to be desired.
While classifying AI systems used at work as high-risk is appropriate, however, the Proposed Regulation is far from being sufficient to protect workers adequately.
The Commission is proposing the first ever legal framework on AI, which addresses the risks of AI and positions Europe to play a leading role globally.
