商品描述

Artificial Intelligence (AI) can benefit our society and economy, but also brings with it new challenges and raises legal and ethical questions. According to the author of this comprehensive analysis, it is imperative to ensure that AI is developed and applied in an appropriate legal and regulatory framework that promotes innovation and investment and, at the same time, addresses the risks associated with certain uses of AI-related technologies.

Essential to understanding the relationship between policy and law, this book traces the evolution of EU policy on artificial intelligence and robotics, focusing in particular on the EU's ethical framework for AI, which defines trust as a prerequisite for ensuring a human-centric approach.

The main part of the book provides a thorough and systematic analysis of the Commission's 2021 proposed AI Act, which establishes harmonised rules for the development, placement on the market and use of AI systems in the EU. The author painstakingly compares the Commission's proposed AI Act with the numerous "compromise" proposals of the Council of the European Union, leading to the final version of the Council's AI Act (general approach) and its formal adoption on 6 December 2022. The author also examines with extraordinary detail the amendments proposed by the relevant committees and political groups of the European Parliament, revealing the position the Parliament is likely to adopt in the forthcoming negotiations with the Commission and the Council on the text of the AI Act.

Numerous legislative and policy documents are presented in detail, while the analysis also considers the comments made by all interested parties (e.g. the European Commission, Council of the European Union, European Parliament, governmental organisations, national competent authorities, and stakeholders/actors with different/conflicting interests, such as corporations, business and consumer associations, civil society and other non-profit organisations).

In the course of its in-depth analysis, this book will provide readers with crucial insight into the reasons behind the European Institutions' different approaches and the often contradictory interests of stakeholders. Because the policy arguments are carefully balanced and drafted with scrupulous care, this volume will establish itself as a reference resource to be consulted for years to come.

人工智慧(AI)可以為我們的社會和經濟帶來好處,但同時也帶來了新的挑戰,並引發法律和倫理問題。根據這本全面分析的作者所述,確保AI在適當的法律和監管框架內開發和應用是至關重要的,這樣可以促進創新和投資,同時解決與某些AI相關技術使用相關的風險。

本書對於理解政策與法律之間的關係至關重要,追溯了歐盟在人工智慧和機器人技術方面的政策演變,特別關注歐盟對AI的倫理框架,該框架將信任定義為確保以人為本的方法的前提。

本書的主要部分對歐盟委員會2021年提出的AI法案進行了徹底而系統的分析,該法案為AI系統的開發、市場投放和使用建立了統一的規則。作者仔細比較了委員會提出的AI法案與歐洲聯盟理事會的多項「妥協」提案,最終導致理事會AI法案(一般方法)的最終版本及其於2022年12月6日的正式通過。作者還以極大的細節檢視了歐洲議會相關委員會和政治團體提出的修正案,揭示了議會在即將與委員會和理事會就AI法案文本進行談判時可能採取的立場。

本書詳細呈現了眾多立法和政策文件,同時分析也考慮了所有相關方(例如歐洲委員會、歐洲聯盟理事會、歐洲議會、政府組織、國家主管機關,以及具有不同/衝突利益的利益相關者/行動者,如企業、商業和消費者協會、公民社會及其他非營利組織)所提出的意見。

在其深入分析的過程中,本書將為讀者提供關於歐洲機構不同方法背後原因的關鍵見解,以及利益相關者之間常常矛盾的利益。由於政策論點經過仔細平衡並以嚴謹的方式撰寫,本書將成為未來數年內可供參考的重要資源。
