*** 𝗔𝗜 𝗔𝗰𝘁 𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗰𝗲 *** Today, the EU’s AI act comes into force. It is the first democratically established regulatory tool in the world to govern Artificial Intelligence. With this new piece of legislation, the role and responsibilities of the #EDPS expand. Our institution will also act as the “notified body” and “market surveillance authority” for “high-risk” AI systems that are developed and deployed by the EU institutions, bodies, offices and agencies. 🛡 Importantly the EU’s data protection laws, the GDPR and EUDPR, will continue to apply to any processing of personal data using AI. Europe must continue to be a home to protecting fundamental rights; we remain committed to doing so. 📹 Watch video message by Wojciech Wiewiorowski on the AI Act: https://europa.eu/!6YDWqR 🔎 Follow our ongoing work on AI: https://europa.eu/!dxGQ9W #AI #DataProtection #Privacy #FundamentalRights

European Union’s independent data protection authority
Über uns
The EDPS is the European Union’s independent data protection authority. We monitor and ensure the protection of personal data and privacy when EU institutions and bodies process the personal information of individuals. We advise EU institutions and bodies on all matters relating to the processing of personal information. We are consulted by the EU legislator on proposals for legislation and new policy development. We also cooperate with national supervisory authorities and other supervisory bodies to improve consistency in protecting personal information. In our supervisory role, we monitor and ensure that the EU institutions comply with data protection rules. Disclaimer: The European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS), together with the other European data protection authorities cooperating in the European Data Protection Board, is working to ensure that social networks respect the highest standards of data protection. The EDPS recommends users of social networks to be particularly careful about how they disclose their personal information and about how it may be used by third parties and the social networks themselves. The presence of the EDPS in LinkedIn does not mean that we endorse or in any way agree with the privacy policy or practices of this professional social network. More info: https://europa.eu/!HP66qc
