The Framework Convention on Artificial Intelligence, is the first legally binding treaty in this field. The implementation of such a treaty is not easy but this is a monumental step towards responsible AI development and deployment with emphasis on human rights, transparency, and international collaboration which are crucial for ensuring that AI technologies benefit society as a whole. https://lnkd.in/gecz8VCZ

There’s three weeks to go until the #IAMLive IP and Emerging Technology Europe conference in London on 6 March. The agenda is looking packed and there is still time to register to make sure you don’t miss HLK expert Louise Perkin (nee Handley) speaking on the ‘Generative AI: a revolution for the IP profession?’ panel, as well as the other sessions on the busy agenda.      The panel, which also includes Scott E. Schneider, Nellie Simon and Chris Hardee, will explore how experts are integrating AI tools to boost the productivity of under-resourced IP departments – but why it could all go wrong if not handled with care. They’ll likely touch on these topics:    Embedding tools and solutions into your IP department  Generative AI as a trade secret risk  How not to be replaced by AI    Find out more about the conference here: https://lnkd.in/eUGeQRZ8    #IAMLiveIPEmergingTechnologyEurope #IPEmergingTechnology2024 #ImagineBetterAI #GenerativeAI 

Breaking News! 📰 The EU AI Act is Now Live! A Game Changer for AI and Medical Device Regulation in Europe. The European Union has officially launched the Artificial Intelligence Act (AI Act), a pioneering legislative framework designed to regulate AI technologies within Europe. This Act is a crucial step in managing the ethical and technical challenges posed by AI systems, including "smart algorithms." The EU AI Act is a significant development for all stakeholders involved with AI technologies in Europe, setting a global benchmark for AI regulation. It not only addresses the risks associated with AI but also encourages innovation within a structured legal framework. As the AI landscape evolves, ongoing engagement with this legislation will be essential for ensuring it remains effective and relevant. This Act represents a proactive approach to integrating cutting-edge technology with societal values and safety standards. 👍 #healthtech #digital #DNAtesting #healthapps #nutrition #MedicalDevice #dietapps

I look forward to attending the European ITechLaw Association Conference in Munich #ITLMunich2024 later this month, meeting with friends and colleagues in the international tech law community to discuss, learn and socialize. There are a lot of interesting topics on the menu that I look forward to, such as:  “AI Regulation – Blessing or Curse for Technical Innovation?”, “Data Ownership in light of new regulation and technology” and “Unlocking AI's Potential: Balancing IP, Trade Secrets, and Innovation”.

European lawmakers have passed the world's first comprehensive regulation on artificial intelligence, classifying technological risks from "unacceptable" to "low." I'm pleased to have added my small contribution to this achievement, working as part of the European AI Alliance collaborating with the European Commission on this issue. This pioneering legislation, due to go into effect in May, aims to harmonize technological innovation with fundamental rights, positioning Europe as a world leader in the management of artificial intelligence!
