AI Coordinated Plan 7 December 2018
• From the lab to the market: building up research excellence,
establishing world-reference testing facilities
accelerating AI take-up through Digital Innovation Hubs.
• Skills and life-long learning
• Data: increase sharing of PSI particularly in Health, Earth Observation, Linguistics
New Political guidelines:
In my first 100 days in office, I
will put forward legislation for a
coordinated European
approach on the human and
ethical implications of Artificial
Intelligence
JRC Policy Report on AI

Polarisation within countries
Impacts on jobs, growth, and inequalities
Need a new strategy leveraging Europe’s diversity and culture
Develop AI so that it reduces inequalities, not increase them
Establish local ecosystem of training, shared data, processing, and algorithms focused around the network of Digital Innovation Hubs i.e. Develop AI addressing local needs.
Recommendation included in Coordinated Action Plan

Landscape of AI in Europe
What do we mean by AI? AI landscape in Europe
• Three-strand methodology: Automatic scanning of hot topics and change over time in selected
sectors
Review secondary sources e.g. studies/surveys at national level in selected countries, studies by other DGs, OECD, etc.
Establishing panel of stakeholders at selected national and regional levels to follow over time and assess impact of the uptake of AI from multiple perspectives.
• Tracking of AI conversations on Twitterindicates that Health and FintecInsurance have very prominent clusters.
AI uptake and impacts
Opportunities for collaboration
Setting up Collaboration Agreement with Regione Lombardia to study together the uptake and the social end economic impact of AI in the region.
Plan to set up panels of companies and institutional stakeholders in different priority sectors to follow over time.
Benefit for companies is greater visibility and opportunity o interact directly with us highlighting important issues affecting their development.
Benefits for JRC is to be in closer contact with reality in different regions and sub-regions.
