The Commission is collecting feedback on the rules to set up a new scientific advisory group of  independent experts on artificial intelligence.

The AI Act foresees a scientific panel of independent experts on AI to assist the AI Office and national authorities in the implementation and enforcement of the AI Act. This advisory body will play a key role in the governance, offer technical advice and input on enforcement, including the ability to alert the AI Office of risks posed by a general-purpose AI model.

The Commission will adopt an implementing act to lay down the rules and procedures for establishing and operating this scientific panel. Once these rules are in place, the Commission will launch a call for expression of interest to select the experts.

The draft implementing act is open for public feedback via the Have Your Say portal. You can Submit your comments by 15 November 2024.

EITHOS - European Identity Theft Observatory System

The EITHOS project, funded under Horizon Europe Cluster 3 call “Online identity theft is countered”, aims to develop a “European Identity Theft Observatory System” (EITHOS). The system will provide easy access to information and intelligence about previous and current identity theft related trends to empower EU citizens, Law Enforcements Agencies (LEAs), and policy makers to further contribute to the prevention, detection, and investigation of crimes related to online identity theft. The Cyber and Data Security Lab (CDSL), part of the Law, Science, Technology and Society (LSTS) Research Group at Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB), is one of the 12 partners in the EITHOS consortium, contributing its vast expertise on legal aspects of data protection, cybersecurity and information security law and policy.
