The entry into force of the EU AI Act: challenges and opportunities

The EU AI Act was driven by heightened public awareness of the societal risks inherent in AI and high demand for accountability within organisations investing heavily in the technology.

It has also provoked strong pushback from some tech industry stakeholders and politicians as a potential hindrance to innovation.

Meanwhile, EU governments are rushing to appoint AI regulators, and international bodies are still finalising details of harmonised standards.

Overall, it’s a hotly contested regulatory space with many moving parts.
