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.

ANERIS - Next generation tools for sensing and monitoring marine-life

Funded under Horizon Europe (HORIZON-INFRA-2022-TECH-01) and running from 2023 to 2026, the ANERIS project aims to tackle the rapid loss of ocean biodiversity. The project’s main objective is to develop, test and implement the next generation of scientific instrumentation tools and methods for sensing and monitoring marine-life. Another key concept of the project is the introduction of the concept of Operational Marine Biology (OMB) as a biodiversity information system. The project consortium consists of 25 partners from 13 countries. Read more about the project and the contribution of Flemish partner VLIZ in this testimonial.
