Regular a inteligência artificial sem travar a inovação: o que divide a Europa e os EUA

At the Web Summit, European and U.S. officials discussed the regulation of artificial intelligence (AI), emphasizing the need for transatlantic dialogue despite differing approaches. The U.S. is seen as less regulated compared to Europe, which has comprehensive laws like the AI Act. While the U.S. relies on fragmented state laws and reacts to identified harms, Europe aims for preventive measures. Abigail Slater from the U.S. acknowledged that strict regulations might hinder innovation, while Des Hogan from Ireland argued that regulations set necessary boundaries for development. Both agreed on shared principles regarding data protection and the importance of cooperation between the U.S. and EU.
