Artificial Intelligence Act

The Article-by-Article-Commentary on the new EU Law on Artificial Intelligence This volume provides a comprehensive article-by-article commentary on the new provisions of the Artificial Intelligence Act (AI Act). It contains chapters on, among other things, technical and ethical foundations, responsibility for AI as well as data protection aspects. The Artificial Intelligence Act provides harmonised rules for the development, marketing and use of AI systems in the EU, including for the safety and fundamental rights of individuals. It thus has a direct legal and economic impact on business activities and the users of AI systems. The authors describe in detail which obligations are imposed on providers and commercial users of AI systems, how such systems can be introduced and used in compliance with the law, and what requirements are placed on the providers (e.g., developers of an AI application for robot-assisted surgery) and the users of such systems (e.g., the hospital using the AI application in surgery).
