Authors: Niloofar Kazemargi, Federica Ceci Abstract: On 21 April 2021, a new proposal for a regulation on Artificial Intelligence was published by European Commission. The EU AI Act defines AI and determines requirements for the development of ethical AI systems: identifying what and whom will be affected by the regulations. A few weeks later, Sam and Frank as part of the Deloitte Risk Advisory after finishing a meeting with a large client about an AI project, set a meeting to discuss together how they need to respond to that. They knew that the new proposal is significantly changing the development of AI in different sectors. They reflected on how they can better support client organizations when uncertainty is high, and things might change with new regulations. Over the last months, they learned that the regulation influence not only their development process and implementation of AI systems, but also their approach to supporting other companies.What was obvious to them was that this will be not the last time they discuss regulations and compliance requirements for digital innovation. Every time that a new legal framework will be proposed or come into force, they need to respond to such regulations. Download Case Study Request Teaching Notes
