ABOUT THE PANEL:
Panel Title: The Impact of EU AI Regulation on Latin American AI Governance: Emerging AI Authorities?
This panel will explore the EU AI Act's influence on the development of AI governance frameworks within Latin America, focusing mainly on the establishment and role of AI supervisory authorities.
A comparative analysis will address the complexities and challenges Latin American countries face in adopting similar AI governance models. Case studies from Brazil, Chile, and other Latin American nations will showcase diverse approaches to establishing new AI supervisory authorities. Additionally, the panel will consider the broader implications for transcontinental regulatory alignment and the unique aspects of Latin American legal and institutional contexts.
Panel Questions:
- Should existing Data Protection Authorities (DPAs) in Latin America be expanded to include AI oversight, or should new dedicated AI authorities be established?
- What are the advantages and disadvantages of the different AI supervisory models observed in Europe?
The panel will have the participation of representatives from data protection authorities (ANPD), academia (VUB, FGV, and the University of Chile), and civil society (Data Privacy Brasil).
