Description

The EU AI Act attributes an important role to AI Literacy. We will see in the coming years how the obligations established in this area will be implemented. Many actors are involved in the development of the mechanisms and instruments to be adopted and we can already identify the many challenges that will have to be faced in order to achieve the objectives pursued by this regulation in this area. It is essential at this time to establish the parameters that should govern the use of tools based on Generative AI solutions by teenagers. The potential of this technology raises many essential questions about the access that teens across Europe have to them. The adoption of the AI Act within the EU addresses some essential issues in the field of the development and use of Generative AI, as it imposes specific obligations in the field of this technology. Several fundamental rights may be affected by a harmful use of these tools, both for the users and for third parties. The experts participating in this Panel will analyze the risks that may be associated with use and access to these tools by teenagers. The speakers will discuss about the mechanisms and elements that could optimally reduce these risks and lay the foundations for AI Literacy across Europe. A number of issues will be raised related to the following challenges :

  • How to strike a balance between the precautions to be taken in the context of the use of Generative AI by teenagers so that they can benefit from its full potential and ensure their safety and the protection of their fundamental rights?
  • How Member States and the AI Office working with different stakeholders will approach the elaboration of voluntary codes of conduct and will ensure and foster AI Literacy among all actors involved in Generative AI innovation across Europe? What role will the European AI Board play in providing support in promoting AI Literacy?
  • How providers and deployers of AI systems should ensure a sufficient level of AI Literacy of their staff and other persons dealing with the operation and use of these systems in the context of the specific use of Generative AI systems by teens?
