Zombies goes on a European Vacation! (in SF) 🏝️
In partnership with GABA, SAP, and the American European Chambers of Commerce and EuroCham, we held a panel discussion on the European Union AI Act: a pioneering regulatory framework that is shaping the future of artificial intelligence across Europe and influencing regulatory conversations globally.
This landmark legislation introduces key provisions with wide-reaching implications for AI governance, ethics, and innovation, offering a model that has sparked debate in the United States and beyond. We covered ethical considerations, the impact on competitiveness, and the legislative challenges, providing attendees with a comprehensive understanding of how this regulation may steer the development and deployment of AI.
The panel featured prominent voices in the field, including Gerard de Graaf, Senior Envoy for Digital to the U.S.; Florence G’sell, a professor specializing in digital sovereignty and governance; Yaad Oren, head of SAP Innovation Center Network; Julie Owono, an advocate for human rights in digital spaces; and Lutz Finger, a venture partner at Cherry.VC and AI expert.
