Just recently the European Artificial Intelligence Act (AI Act), the world’s first comprehensive regulation on artificial intelligence, entered into force. The AI Act is designed to ensure that AI developed and used in the EU is trustworthy, with safeguards to protect people’s fundamental rights. The regulation aims to establish a harmonized internal market for AI in the EU, encouraging the uptake of this technology and creating a supportive environment for innovation and investment.
That is why the American Chamber of Commerce in Lithuania and its IT & Digital Solutions Committee invite you to an Exclusive Meeting with Vice-Minister of the Economy and Innovation Ms. Erika Kuročkina to discuss the government’s strategy for the promotion of AI, including detailed information about the Artificial Intelligence Act (AI Act)—its policy, governance, preparation process, and current status. The meeting will also cover investments in AI and the support available to businesses in this area.
