The
European Commission has launched on February 19 a White Paper on “Artificial
Intelligence – A European approach to excellence and trust” which is open for
consultation until May 19. This document builds up on existing documents such
as the “Report: Artificial Intelligence a European perspective” from 5 December
2018, the “Coordinated Plan on AI” from 7 December 2018, and the “Political
guidelines for 2019-2024” launched by the new president of the Commission,
Ursula von der Leyen.
With this White Paper, the European Commission aims to be at the forefront of the next (industrial) data wave by creating a so-called "ecosystem of excellence" and "ecosystem of trust" to boost the uptake of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and address the risks associated with certain uses of this new technology.
The White Paper on AI outlines Europe’s plans to regulate the Artificial Intelligence sector, adding to and expanding on the Commission’s aims to better prepare Europe for the digital age. Additionally, the White Paper contains the Commission’s framework for a formal regulatory body focused on AI, but doesn’t propose specific rules or laws to be adopted.
Overall, the White Paper recognises the opportunities AI presents to Europe’s digital economy and its different sectors, and presents the Commission’s vision for a coordinated approach to promoting the uptake of AI in the EU and addressing the risks associated with certain uses of AI.
