Loss of control: closing the governance gap before the first incident
Current frameworks regulate the deployment contexts where LoC is least likely and leave unaddressed the ones where it is most likely Authors: Alejandro Tlaie Boria Executive Summary Policy attention on frontier AI risks has concentrated heavily on misuse: cyberattacks, disinformation, and the potential for AI to assist in the development of biological or chemical weapons. AI-enabled cyberattacks have already transitioned from an anticipated risk to a documented harm. Many in

Resourcing the AI Office
A strategic investment in Europe’s competitiveness and sovereignty Cover image: Stock photograph from Pexels, used under a free licence. Authors: Tina Wünn and Jimmy Farrell Executive Summary Public trust is a decisive factor in the adoption of Artificial Intelligence. At a time when most people remain sceptical of AI, the EU AI Act has the potential to create legal certainty and boost trustworthy AI. This is particularly important given that today’s most advanced AI models c
