Show Notes
The text of the European Union AI act was passed with a hefty majority in June 2023. It's one of the most stringent and wide-reaching pieces of legislation governing artificial intelligence to date, but what does that mean for global organizations inside (and outside) the European Union?
In this episode, we'll be asking what the act means, why it matters, and where the uncertainties, controversies and challenges lie, with HPE Chief Technologist Matt Armstrong-Barnes.
This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations and what we can learn from it.
