AI systems offer immense opportunities, but they also harbour risks – particularly with regard to legal and safety requirements. On February 2, 2025, the first part of the AI Act will become binding in the EU. This will introduce stricter regulations: AI systems that pose an unacceptable risk will be banned, and companies must ensure that their employees have sufficient “AI competence”.
A clear AI policy can help companies prevent the uncontrolled use of AI, avoid legal consequences, and strengthen trust in new technologies.
The goals of a strong AI policy:
1️⃣ Clear definition of AI systems: Employees must know exactly what constitutes an AI system in order to identify it correctly and apply the necessary testing processes.
2️⃣ Promote awareness: The AI Act requires companies to train their employees. They must understand the legal, ethical, and safety aspects of AI and know how to use AI responsibly.
3️⃣ Establish clear compliance processes: Defined processes with clear roles and responsibilities ensure that AI applications are introduced, used, and regularly reviewed in a secure manner.
