Policy paper: Risks, innovation, and adaptability in the UK's incrementalism versus the European Union's comprehensive artificial intelligence regulation – Dr Asress Gikay

"The regulation of artificial intelligence (AI) should strike a balance between addressing the risks of the technology and its benefits through enabling useful innovation whilst remaining adaptable to evolving risks," we read in a new research article published by Dr Asress Gikay (Ã÷ÐÇ°ËØÔ Law). 

Dr Gikay emphasises several key issues, including the following:

  • The EU AI Act's method of classifying high-risk AI uses is imperfect, potentially overlooking significant risks while misclassifying low-risk use cases due to its compartmentalised approach.
  • The EU Commission's delegated power to revise the list of high-risk AI uses is insufficient, as revisions may be delayed and might not accurately identify emerging risks.
  • The UK's incremental and principle-driven approach to AI regulation is seen as more pragmatic, offering a better balance between innovation and risk management, particularly if it is fine-tuned and coordinated effectively.
