The AI Act sets out legal obligations for high-risk systems—but how do you show you’ve met them? This JRC report explains what European harmonised standards will need to deliver. It’s a must-read if you’re building for compliance in 2026 or advising on AI Act conformity.
This World Bank report maps out how countries are developing AI governance strategies, highlighting tools like soft law, hard law, and regulatory sandboxes.
This report explores historical compliance breakdowns in high-risk industries—like finance, health, and aviation—to extract patterns that can inform AI governance today.
This national security AI framework defines when and how U.S. government agencies can use AI in national security systems. It prohibits dangerous applications, sets minimum risk management standards for high-impact AI use, and mandates oversight, training, and transparency.
The paper studies how generative AI reshapes individual work processes. Using GitHub Copilot’s rollout as a natural experiment, the authors find that developers with AI access shift time away from collaborative management tasks toward solo coding. This effect is strongest for lower-skill developers.
The FDA’s draft guidance outlines what manufacturers of AI-enabled medical devices should include in their premarket submissions.
This study digs into how AI ethics actually gets implemented inside tech companies. It shows how “ethics entrepreneurs” — employees trying to integrate ethical practices — face structural hurdles, lack of leadership support, and personal risks. Despite formal policies, outcomes rarely match.
Fundamental Rights Impact Assessments (FRIAs) are required for certain high-risk AI systems under Article 27 of the AI Act. They help ensure that AI deployment doesn’t violate key EU rights.
