The EU Parliament has passed a new AI law that provides for a strict classification of systems according to risk. According to James Fisher, Chief Strategy Officer at Qlik, a company that offers a cloud-based end-to-end platform for data integration, this is commendable.

He notes that the European Union is at a crucial point in mastering the difficult game between regulation and innovation with regard to AI. According to Fisher, this is commendable, but calls for a more nuanced framework that not only ensures ethical use of the technology and transparency, but also stimulates innovation and market competitiveness.

According to Fisher, in order to achieve this balance, a paradigm shift is needed towards a regulatory environment that promotes ethical AI progress through support mechanisms. In addition, the EU should take a strategic, forward-looking approach to creating a legal framework that also actively promotes a dynamic and competitive market.

"The European Union is at a crucial point in mastering the difficult game between regulation and innovation with regard to AI."
