AI Act's Future in Doubt as Industry Warns of Low Implementation Standards
The AI Act, passed in early 2024, aims to empower creators and safeguard their rights. However, concerns have been raised about low implementation standards potentially undermining its goals.
The International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) has urged EU policymakers, including MEPs, the European Commission, and the Council of the EU, to uphold the principles of the AI Act. This legislation, a key means to support AI development in Europe, provides essential tools for creators to exercise and enforce their rights.
However, low implementation standards could contradict EU law and ignore the intention of the EU legislator. EU politicians are called upon to maintain transparency, obtain consent, and protect creators. They must fully enforce regulatory powers and support digital sovereignty and autonomy, aligning with the AI Act and related digital laws.
The AI Act, passed in 2024, seeks to protect creators and foster AI development in Europe. EU politicians must ensure its effective implementation, upholding transparency, consent, and protection of creators, to fully realise its benefits.
