A series of important European Union (EU) meetings focused on digital regulation and artificial intelligence took place in Brussels at the beginning of December, in which the Czech Republic played a key role.
On Thursday 4 December, a meeting of the AI Board, the EUs highest coordination platform for artificial intelligence, took place. Representatives of all Member States discussed the first evaluation of the Digital and AI Omnibus. The Czech Republic was among the main proponents of simplifying bureaucratic procedures in the framework of AI legislation. Notable achievements include:
Advancing AI Act obligations and linking to available standards.
Simplification of requirements for registration, technical documentation and post-market tracking of products.
Facilitating the appointment of notified bodies and the conformity assessment process.
says Minister of Industry and Trade Lukas Vlcek.
The Czech delegation called for the approval of the proposal by the European Parliament and the Council as soon as possible and emphasized the need to continue removing unnecessary bureaucracy that limits the development of companies operating in the field of AI. says Acting Senior Director of the Digitization and Innovation Section Daniel Vsetecka.
Additional attention was paid to key topics such as the AI Gigafactory and the use of AI in medtech. Manufacturers of AI medical devices will be able to use one Notified Body for both MDR and AIA assessment, significantly simplifying and speeding up the entire process. says Deputy Minister and Government Commissioner for Artificial Intelligence Jan Kavalirek.
On Friday, December 5, EU ministers for the digital agenda at the Telco Council appreciated the significant contribution of the Czech Republic in the field of digitization and AI. They also confirmed the importance of the approval of the Omnibus and the launch of the Digital Fitness Check - a comprehensive audit of the EUs digital regulations, which will enable the further removal of redundant bureaucratic obstacles.
The Czech Republic is thus consolidating its position as a key actor in the field of digital economy and artificial intelligence at the EU level. Active support of innovation and digitization remains our main priority, which is also confirmed by close cooperation with the European Commission.
