Listen "18. AI liability in the EU: Who’s responsible when things go wrong? Ft. Artur Bogucki"
Episode Synopsis
The rapid development of AI has exposed significant gaps in liability laws, making it difficult to determine responsibility when AI systems cause harm. This is particularly challenging due to the "black box" nature of AI and the fragmented regulatory landscape across EU member states. One future solution may be the “Product Liability Directive”, set to take effect in 2026, which will shift the burden of proof onto AI companies and will require greater transparency. However, key issues like misinformation, discrimination, and intellectual property violations remain unaddressed, raising concerns about the need for a more comprehensive AI liability framework in the EU. Joining host Tom Parker is Artur Bogucki, Associate Researcher in the Global Governance, Regulation, Innovation and Digital Economy (GRID) unit at CEPS, to examine the challenges of AI regulation and discuss what policymakers need to do to ensure a clear, enforceable liability system that keeps pace with technological advancements.
