🇪🇺🤖The #EU's proposed #AIAct wants humans to oversee #AI generated decisions. Is that a good idea? 🚨In a new @ZEW Policy Brief I explain all the reasons why it isn't and what should be done about that. ➡️zew.de/en/zew/news/human-ove…

Vergangene Woche waren @JohaWa, @seb_waitforit und ich in #Berlin um zu diskutieren, wie die im #AIAct vorgesehenen #KI-Prüfungen umgesetzt werden sollten. Quintessenz: Das Design von Anreizen und Koordinationsmechanismen ist sehr wichtig für verlässliche Prüfungen. (1/4) @ZEW

The #AIAct is overly optimistic about our ability to recognize and prevent poor #AI decisions... 🫣🚨 I wrote an opinion essay on the #AIAct for @Parlimag on why that's a problem and what to do about it. Check it out! ⬇️⬇️ theparliamentmagazine.eu/new…

Can police 👮, doctors 👩‍⚕️, hiring managers 🧑‍💼, ... humans be trusted to correct wrong AI advice? 🫣 You can read my opinion piece here: euractiv.com/section/digital…
The EU's #AI Act heavily relies on human oversight to keep automated decision-making in check. But to what extent people are too lenient or too critical over algorithms remains an under-discussed subject. An interesting take from @JohaWa on @eaTechEU. euractiv.com/section/digital…
