So could you tell us a little bit about your current work in the area of trustworthy AI? You know, what is it? What work are you doing? Why? What makes AI trustworthy versus untrustworthy and presumably risky then on that basis? Over to you, Frederick.

Fredrik HeintzGUEST
So I would say, I mean, basically I was part of this high-level expert group where we developed these ethical guidelines for trustworthy AI back in 2019.

Fredrik HeintzGUEST
And then we basically had three requirements for an AI systems to be trustworthy.

Fredrik HeintzGUEST
The second is that it should satisfy four ethical principles, including respecting human autonomy, fairness, explicability, and also avoiding harm.

Fredrik HeintzGUEST
And then the third requirement was that you need to have a robust and safe, proper implementation.

Therese MurphyHOST
What's your view on the EU's AI Act? Specifically, you know, are there features of the Act that you really like? And equally, are there features of the Act that you find frustrating?
