CAHAI.

In September 2019, the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe set up an Ad Hoc Committee on Artificial Intelligence – CAHAI. The Committee will examine the feasibility and potential elements on the basis of broad multi-stakeholder consultations, of a legal framework for the development, design and application of artificial intelligence, based on Council of Europe’s standards on human rights, democracy and the rule of law. The committee, which brings together representatives from the Member States, will have an exchange of views with leading experts on the impact of AI applications on individuals and society, the existing soft law instruments specifically dealing with AI and the existing legally binding international frameworks applicable to AI.

AI ON DEMAND PLATFORM

The European Commission has launched a call for proposals to fund a large €20 million project on Artificial Intelligence (AI) under the framework programme on R&D Horizon 2020. It aims to mobilise the AI community in Europe in order to combine efforts, to develop synergies among all the existing initiatives and to optimise Europe’s potential. The call was closed on 17th April 2018, and the received proposals have been evaluated. The awarded project started on 1st January 2019.

Under the next multi-annual budget, the Commission plans to increase KEY ENABLERS AND SECURITY SECURITY AND ENABLERS KEY its investment in AI further, mainly through two programmes: the research and innovation framework programme (Horizon Europe), and a new programme called Digital Europe. 2021 • UNESCO International research centre on Artificial Intelligence (IRCAI)

IRCAI aims to provide an open and transparent environment for AI research and debates on AI, providing expert support to stakeholders around the globe in drafting guidelines and action plans for AI. It will bring together various stakeholders with a variety of know-how from around the world to address global challenges and support UNESCO in carrying out its studies and take part in major international AI projects. The centre will advise governments, organisations, legal persons and the public ROLLING PLAN FOR ICT STANDARDISATION STANDARDISATION ICT FOR PLAN ROLLING
