Synopsis
Following the success of our AI Regulation Summit AI & AI in FS Summit this autumn, City and Financial Global is pleased to give you advanced notice of the next event in the series, The EU AI Act Summit, which will take place in Central London on 6 February.
The EU AI Act is the first comprehensive model for the regulation of AI to be introduced internationally (other than China’s AI regulation, which has a different objective). It takes a prescriptive, rules-based approach and covers both the providers and users of AI technologies. It is extra-territorial in its reach, although how this might be enforced is not yet clear. In recognition of how quickly AI technology is developing, those drafting the legislation have tried to build in a degree of flexibility, but this is likely to be limited by the fact that it is rules-based.
The summit brings together an exceptional panel of experts to provide practical guidance about how both providers and corporate users of AI should be preparing now for the introduction of this far-reaching piece of legislation.
