Summary

The newly passed EU AI Act is challenging companies around the world to ask big questions about how they use AI tools and how they protect their customers. This means that responsible AI can no longer be an afterthought: companies must develop strong AI governance standards to avoid brand risk and high fines.

In this interactive webinar, you’ll learn how the EU AI Act will impact business, how to prepare, how you can mitigate risk, and how regulation and innovation can be balanced. You’ll hear key learnings from IBM’s approach to AI governance and how this experience directly applies to the EU AI Act.

You’ll leave the session with clear advice on what companies need to do today to prepare for both the EU AI Act and the global AI legislation that will follow.
