The new AI act will have significant consequences for civil society and the economy. The text
will enter into force in the summer of 2024 the first provisions will apply just six months
later. The aim of the European legislator was to provide better protection against the dangers
of AI while at the same time promoting innovation. In parallel to the beginning implementation
of the AI Act the practical guide tries to elaborate and asses the regulation systemically.
It provides legal users with an initial but reliable orientation when using the technology. In
addition to the basics in the AI regulation itself practice-relevant areas are classified in
the annexes on high-risk AI systems. The use cases range from biometric identification of
natural persons to questions of education as well as labor law to the use in the judiciary
related to law enforcement and administration of justice. Special attention is paid to the
comprehensible communication of the complex technical interrelationships in the use of
artificial intelligence. In addition the questions of the relationship to the other digital
and data law of the EU above all the GDPR which arise in business practice are assessed.
This becomes particularly relevant for example in the case of transparency requirements
technical data protection and risk assessment. Finally the work addresses practice-relevant
liability issues and presents enforcement by the supervisory regime. At a glance: -
