ETSI/CEN Workshop on EU Digital Identity Framework Standards 10-12 September 2024 | Sophia Antipolis (France) + online Regulation (EU) 2024/1183 amending Regulation (EU) 910/2014 on electronic identities, authentication and signatures (eIDAS 2) was published in the Official Journal of the European Union this spring 2024. This amendment establishes an ambitious European Digital Identity Framework with digital identity wallets and several new trust services. This will bring about a major transformation of security of the European digital infrastructure facilitating cross-border transactions and supporting seamless access to financial, governmental and commercial services across Europe with a high level of accountability. ETSI and CEN are working together to develop several standards to support this new regulatory framework building on the latest globally recognised standards for website authentication, open identities and mobile-based wallets. The workshop will present the latest status of these standards and aims to include demonstrations from large-scale pilots applying the EU Digital Identity Wallet. #standardization #DigitalIdentity

Last week, Magnus Mähring contributed to an enriching panel discussion on innovation challenges at the European defense executive program #SERA35. He spoke about policy challenges for technology-driven innovation in Sweden and Europe, in particular: (1) the often unseen risks of restricting technology, (2) the need to focus also on value creation through technology in policymaking, and (3) the importance of building knowledge and capabilities for multi-actor collaborations to better address grand challenges and other complex societal problems. #Innovation #Leadership #Entrepreneurship #SERA #Defense #Digitalization

🔍 Exploring GDPR and AI: Insights from France's Recent Guidance On April 8, 2024, the French Data Protection Authority released guidelines on the application of GDPR to AI systems. As India anticipates clear enforcement rules under the DPDPA, the insights from the guidelines offer valuable lessons, though they must be contextualised to the Indian context. The French Guidance Approach: The guidelines break down AI system functions into two phases for GDPR compliance: Development Stage: Designing, development, and training of the AI system. Deployment Stage: Putting the developed AI system into use. 📋 Distinct Compliance Needs: Each phase consists of different processing operations, requiring separate analysis for GDPR compliance, particularly for identifying legal bases, informing individuals, minimizing data collection, and defining retention periods. Therefore, the compliance of AI systems with GDPR must be assessed meticulously at both stages, as the applicable legal regime and obligations may differ. Defining the Purpose of Processing: The guidance emphasizes defining a clear and explicit purpose of processing at the development stage, crucial for both compliance and operational clarity. The relevance of the guidance on purpose of processing can be directly mapped to India’s DPDPA as it also requires Data Fiduciaries to inform the Data Principles of the purpose for which their personal data is proposed to be processed, while obtaining their consent for processing. The following two industry specific case scenarios offer useful guidance: Case 1: For AI systems with a predetermined operational use or uses, the purpose is defined early in the development phase, ensuring clarity and legitimacy throughout its lifecycle. Case 2: For general-purpose AI systems and foundational models, where operational use is unspecified and the AI System can be used for a wide variety of applications, the guidelines suggest outlining the system type in a sufficiently clear and intelligible manner and its technically feasible functionalities and capabilities that the data controller can reasonably foresee from the development phase, aiding the future application alignment while also ensuring that the principle of finality is respected. 💡Other Useful Insights: The Guidance also shares insights on other useful aspects of GDPR enforcement on AI Systems such as on determining the applicable legal regime, role of different actors involved in an AI System as data controllers and most importantly, the data protection considerations in system designing. Stay tuned as I delve further into these topics in future posts! #GDPR #AICompliance #DataProtection #PrivacyLaw #TechRegulation #AIRegulation #DataSecurity #DPDPA

AI Compliance under the GDPR and human rights impact assessment : The Irish Data Protection Commission (DPC) has launched an investigation into Google over its use of European users' personal data for developing its AI model, PaLM 2. The probe will assess whether Google met its obligations under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) to conduct an impact assessment ensuring the protection of individuals' fundamental rights. This investigation also follows Google's subsequent release of the advanced AI model, Gemini. Human rights impact assessment will also need to be carried out under the AI act, pursuant to Article 27. The obligation to conduct a Fundamental Rights Impact Assessment (FRIA) applies when a high-risk AI system is first used. The deployer must complete the FRIA before the system goes into service. While the deployer can use an existing FRIA or impact assessment from the provider, they must update the information if any of the assessed elements have changed or become outdated. An FRIA should include a description of how the high-risk AI system will be used according to its intended purpose, including details on its usage duration and frequency. It must identify the natural persons and groups likely to be affected and analyze specific risks of harm to these groups, incorporating information from the system's provider. The FRIA should also outline the human oversight measures implemented and the procedures for managing risks if they materialize, including internal governance and complaint mechanisms. #Compliance #GDPR #AI #Humanrights #Riskassessment https://lnkd.in/ekXuExx7

“From François Bayrou to Marine Le Pen” - “In the case of the MoDem European parliamentary assistants, the Paris judicial court pronounced three acquittals on 5 February 2024, including that of François Bayrou. While we can only be pleased with the more lenient fate reserved for the MoDem parliamentarians, we must hope that the judges of the Paris judicial court will manage in 2025 to render an equally lenient judgment with regard to Marine Le Pen and the parliamentarians of the National Rally. We must be careful not to have double standards in court judgments. Especially since the voting method differs for electing deputies to the National Assembly. Indeed, the two-round single-member majority vote has been applied to legislative elections since the adoption of the Constitution of the Fifth Republic. The text was submitted to a referendum and approved by a very large majority on 28 September 1958. The same is not true for electing members of the European Parliament. They are elected using a single-round proportional list voting system. In fact, it must be recognised that parliamentary work requires more links for members of the European Parliament to have with their political party. The same goes for their parliamentary assistants.

🎓 Communication, Dissemination & Exploitation in Projects and their Impact - InfoSheet by NCP Flanders "Though often used in the same context, these three terms actually mean something completely different. They have in common that they relate to an increased impact. And that they are needed in every successful project (and proposal). Horizon Europe is about impact, even more than earlier framework programmes. Making a difference is, after all, the goal of Horizon Europe. And this should reflect in your mindset when writing a proposal, as impact is more than just ticking some boxes. Impact is about increasing the visibility of your research/business, it enhances your reputation and helps gaining understanding and support. It potentially opens up other (follow-up) funding sources. And by doing so, it impact supports the spreading and further use of knowledge. And yes, it increases your proposal’s chances of success."

Why, in theory, all French lawyers could be sent to serve one year in jail It’s a curious thing about becoming a lawyer in France. Picture this: after years of grueling study, every aspiring lawyer finally makes it to the big day - the oath-taking ceremony. There, each candidate recites solemnly (or nervously), “I do” to the oath of upholding dignity, integrity, and humanity in their legal work. At that specific moment, s/he officially acquires the quality of lawyer. But here’s the catch. Candidates don the court dress during the oath ceremony. Now, French law is quite clear. Article 433-14 of the Penal Code firmly states that anyone who wears a regulated uniform without official entitlement risks one year of imprisonment and a €15,000 fine. And according to the Law of December 31, 1971, the black court dress with a white collar is reserved for lawyers in practice. But at before the “I do” instant, technically, the candidates are still *not* lawyers. So, by law’s letter, each new lawyer technically starts their career by… well… breaking it! It’s as if the French legal journey begins with a minor theoretical paradox: one could argue that to uphold the law, you must first - just for a fleeting moment - bend it. https://lnkd.in/eCemUDBr

#exoskeletons have begun to help disabled people move freely again. In 2019 the PromEthosIA Team Geneviève Fieux-Castagnet Kamel BENTCHIKOU had explored in a paper (in French) their ethical challenges https://lnkd.in/ersupdHJ 5 years later, we contemplate the moment when the use of these devices will be expanded thanks to #artificialintelligence to boost the power and stamina of manual workers. A new paper in Nature https://lnkd.in/ewYnThF6 demonstrates that exoskeletons "have enormous potential to improve locomotive performance". The novelty is that it is today possible to create an AI-powered "universal controller" that can seamlessly adapt to individual users without extra training. This approach does away with the need for human input by instead training the controller in simulation. The resulting model is user-agnostic, automatically adapting to the unique movement patterns of different people wearing the exoskeleton to walk, run, or climb stairs, with for the moment a focus on elderly people and people affected with neurological conditions. The future of AI-powered exoskeletons is unquestionable in terms of enhancing the power and efficiency of human movement. But the ethical challenges remain. It is time to introduce ethics-by-design in the development of these devices.
