A legal framework for AI in Switzerland

Artificial Intelligence 14:23

What aspects need to be considered for a legal framework for AI in Switzerland? Should Switzerland adopt the EU AI Regulation or orientate itself on other regulations?

Prof. Nadja Braun Binder and Prof. Florent Thouvenin addressed these questions at the meeting of the SATW Expert Group AI Law and Technology on Friday, 18 October 2024. They presented the most important findings from a research project funded by the Mercator Foundation Switzerland, in which proposals for a legal framework for the use of AI in Switzerland were developed. These findings were published in the form of six white papers on the topics of "Discrimination", "Manipulation", "Data protection", "Transparency", "Transparency through public records" and "Transparency through the justification of decisions".
