Paragraph 4 b (new)
4 b. Calls on the Commission to promote strong and transparent cooperation between public and private sectors and the academia to enforce knowledge sharing, and to promote education and training of AI professionals on ethical standards and implications;
Amendment 32 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 4 c (new)
Paragraph 4 c (new)
4 c. Calls on the Commission to collaborate closely with technical researchers to investigate, prevent, and mitigate potential harmful effects of malicious uses and to develop tools, policies, and norms appropriate to AI applications; further encourages the cross-border cooperation in their identification; notes that best practices should be identified in research areas with more mature methods for addressing dual-use concerns, such as security and privacy, and that they should be applied to the area of AI;
Amendment 33 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 4 d (new)
Paragraph 4 d (new)
4 d. Highlights the fact that malicious use of AI could threaten digital security, physical security, political and societal security and public safety, as it could be used to conduct large-scale, finely- targeted and highly-efficient attacks, lead to mass surveillance and generally diminish the right of individuals to choice and self-determination;
Amendment 38 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 5
Paragraph 5
5. Stresses that European standards for AI must be based on the principles of digital ethics, human dignity, respect for fundamental rights, data protection and security, aiming at incorporating these principles by design, thus contributing to building trust among users; emphasises the importance of capitalising on the EU’s potential for creating a strong infrastructure for AI systems rooted in high standards of data and respect for humans;
Amendment 42 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 6
Paragraph 6
6. Welcomes the Commission’s initiative to establish the European AI Alliance tasked with developing draft AI ethical guidelineinteracting with the High-Level Expert Group of Artificial Intelligence (AI HLEG) in developing comprehensive AI ethical guidelines and policy recommendations; highlights the importance of active participation in global alliances and AI fora to enable knowledge sharing and a comprehensive understanding on an international fora of concerns relating to data privacy, transparency and security in developing and deploying AI systems; calls on the Commission to complete the work and publish the guidelines in coordination with the Member States, and to continue working towards an EU-wide approach;
Amendment 53 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 7
Paragraph 7
7. Underlines that any AI system must be developed with respect for the principles of transparencalgorithmic transparency and accountability, allowing for human understanding of its actions; notes that in order to build trust in and enable the progress of AI, users must be aware of how their data is used and when they are communicating or interacting with an AI system; believes that this will contribute to better understanding and confidence among users when dealinteracting with machines; stresses that the explainability of decisions must be an EU standard in accordance with Articles 13, 14 and 15 of the GDPR; stresses that individuals have the right to a final determination being made by a person;
Amendment 65 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 8
Paragraph 8
8. Stresses the importance of the quality and accuracy, as well as the representative nature of data used in the development and deployment of algorithms, as their standard of AI systems relies on the data used to train them; notes that the use of low quality, outdated, incomplete or incorrect data may lead to poor predictions and in turn discrimination and bias, as well as purely incorrect conclusions or false outcomes, and that it is therefore important in the age of big data to ensure that algorithms are trained on representative samples of high quality data in order to achieve statistical parity.;
Amendment 68 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 8 a (new)
Paragraph 8 a (new)
8 a. Highlights the importance of designing and enforcing a comprehensive set of auditing rules and guidelines for developing and deploying AI systems; underlines that a coordinated approach is necessary to ensure risk-based evaluations are carried out frequently for AI systems and their components; stresses the importance of developing safety and flagging mechanisms aimed at mitigating risks of infringement by AI systems;
