The EU and AI: Challenges and opportunities

Description

AI will fundamentally transform our societies. It offers significant opportunities for us as individuals, especially in terms of advancements in education and healthcare, as well as substantial efficiency gains for our businesses and public sector. The EU is making significant investments to help Europe catch up with the USA and China in AI development and research, while simultaneously adopting an AI regulation to address the risks and ethical dilemmas that particularly advanced AI tools may pose. This seminar will discuss how EU cooperation can best harness the opportunities presented by AI while managing potential risks.
