BRUSSELS, March 13,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- IBM (NYSE: IBM) applauds the EU
Parliament's decision to adopt the EU AI Act, a significant
milestone in establishing responsible AI regulation in the
European Union.
The EU AI Act provides a much-needed framework for ensuring
transparency, accountability, and human oversight in developing and
deploying AI technologies. While important work must be done to
ensure the Act is successfully implemented, IBM believes the
regulation will foster trust and confidence in AI systems while
promoting innovation and competitiveness.
"I commend the EU for its leadership in passing comprehensive,
smart AI legislation. The risk-based approach aligns with IBM's
commitment to ethical AI practices and will contribute to building
open and trustworthy AI ecosystems," said Christina Montgomery, Vice President and Chief
Privacy & Trust Officer at IBM. "IBM stands ready to lend our
technology and expertise – including our watsonx.governance product
– to help our clients and other stakeholders comply with the EU AI
Act and upcoming legislation worldwide so we can all unlock the
incredible potential of responsible AI."
