Use of Artificial Intelligence Calls for Transparency

AI accelerates business, yet requires governance The recent emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) systems has enabled companies to boost their efficiency. AI tools may be used for a wide variety of purposes, from simpler, administrative tasks to complex tasks such as core business purposes like planning business strategies and compiling analytical action plans for projects. The rise of AI systems has impacted how companies conduct their day-to-day business as they provide easy-to-use tools for making daily business more efficient. While AI systems are given increasing emphasis in businesses, companies may not disregard establishing control and governance mechanisms for understanding their obligations and mitigating the compliance-related risks.

AI, Free and Open Source Software and IPRs in the Context of Software Development

Artificial intelligence is speeding up software development Artificial intelligence (AI) has taken the world by storm and is becoming a common accelerator also in software development. Although AI in general is not something entirely new, with its roots reaching to the 1950s, generative AI has been soaring since the first commonly known large language models (LLMs) were launched a few years back. Generative AI tools are trained with content often referred to as training data (input) and they generate new content (output), such as software code, based on the user’s command, a prompt. The output may resemble human-generated text, pictures, sounds, videos – or software, for that matter.

Implementing the Data Act without Clashing with the GDPR?

The Data Act will largely apply as of 12 September 2025, imposing new obligations and rights in relation to personal and non-personal data in the context of, e.g., connected products and related services. As rules governing data expand, it is increasingly important to map what data sets are processed by an organisation and how they are managed in the upcoming regulatory framework. For data sets including personal data (which is often the case!), it is vital to align the implementation of the Data Act with existing GDPR compliance.
