"The AI Act defines the essential requirements that high-risk AI systems must satisfy in order to guarantee their safety. In line with other pieces of product legislation, technical standards define concrete approaches that can be adopted to meet these requirements in practice." "The main committee tasked with creating AI standards for the European Union, the Joint Technical Committee (JTC) 21 of CEN-CENELEC, has recently published an overview of 37 standardisation activities in support of the AI Act. These include adopted international standards as well as home-grown European norms, which are necessary to cover many critical aspects of AI trustworthiness where international standardisation is not fully aligned with the objectives of the AI Act."
The European Commission's Joint Research Centre has published a policy brief on the standards for the #AIAct. It provides a state of play, reminding that the timeline is short but also that the standards need to be "clear, precise and actionable" and that "it is essential that the level of consensus achieved by technical experts is sufficiently deep." https://lnkd.in/eede3Mw9
