Politico’s AI Summit 2021
The European Commission will soon introduce legislation to govern the use of AI, acting on its aim to draw up rules for the technology sector over the next five years and on its legacy as the world’s leading regulator of digital privacy. At the heart of the issue is the will to balance the need for rules with the desire to boost innovation, allowing the old continent to assert its digital sovereignty. On where the needle should be, opinions are divided – and the publication of the Commission’s draft proposal will not be the end of the discussion.
From the EU’s legislative framework on AI and data flow to tackling uncomfortable questions about people’s fundamental rights, misinformation, and international cooperation, join top regulators, tech leaders, startups innovators, and civil society representatives to debate the future of AI in Europe and worldwide.
