Ready to embrace the opportunities offered by AI? The AI Act, the world’s first comprehensive artificial intelligence law, enters into force today. European citizens and businesses can now safely and confidently seize the opportunities of secure and trustworthy AI which plays by clear rules: 🔴 Unacceptable risk AI, such as social scoring, is banned. 🟠 High-risk AI, including recruitment and applications in medical devices, must meet strict requirements. 🟡 Limited-risk AI, like chatbots, must inform users they are interacting with AI. 🟢 Minimal risk AI, for example, spam filters, follows existing rules with no additional obligations. Innovation drives Europe forward. The AI Act will ensure it respects our values. Discover how ➡ https://lnkd.in/ehhaxR9 #AIAct #AIinEurope #EUDelivers

When wildfires rage in one European country, all of Europe remains on standby. Recently, we visited the EU’s 𝗘mergency 𝗥esponse 𝗖oordination 𝗖entre (ERCC) in Brussels. This is where the EU mobilises and coordinates international assistance, ensuring a swift and effective response to disasters such as wildfires, floods, or earthquakes. Operating 24/7, the ERCC helps to: 🚨 monitor disasters around the globe 🗺 provide real-time information 🚁 dispatch response teams, experts, and equipment 👨🚒 and more. Hear from Javier, one of the ERCC duty officers, who gave us a short tour in the operations room. Learn more about the centre → https://europa.eu/!Jybwh7

Renaissance begins with a second chance. The new EU rules on the Right to Repair enter into force today! They will support consumers in repairing their defective products instead of replacing them by: 🔸 obliging producers of certain products, such as fridges and smartphones, to offer timely repair service at a reasonable price; 🔹 requiring these manufacturers to offer spare parts 🔸 extending the legal guarantee for the repaired product; 🔹 creating a European repair platform to find suitable repairers. Consumers will be producing less waste and greenhouse gas emissions, saving resources, and spending less on new purchases.
