The AI act is really a strange effort to regulate technology horizontally without even being able to define it's scope. Many who have read it believe it ends up regulating all computer logic in critical infrastructure (while making this definition wide as well) . I have tried to comment on this through various channels (local government/associations), because it seems a really strange "horizontal" regulation that could have huge side effects. I hope more people will point out the problems of the current proposal. I am really a proponent of both the GDPR and AI ethics for most parts but this one is really going too far .
- xg15 5y agoWell, for me it's enough if it starts to regulate whether I'm approved for this credit or not, or whether I should be considered suspect for a crime. I'm honestly worried that the greatest innovation in computing of the last decade seems to be inventing programs where literally no one understands how they work.
- hectormalot 5y agoCurrent drafts have a much too wide definition of AI (basically any predictive function) but a fairly narrow scope of what high risk applications are (listed in an annex). For those applications in scope, the birder seems extraordinarily high. E.g. that data sets should be “free of errors” I think things will improve before the final act. I have contributed to some of the commentary towards the regulator on this, and a lot of the flaws mentioned are now well recognized. Disclaimer: opinions above are my own.
