On Tuesday, 3 June 2025, from 16:15 to 17:45 in room ITZ 017, the University of Passau invites you to a special event as part of the lecture series “AI under the magnifying glass”: Two legal scholars, Professor Délphine Dogot (Université catholique de Lille) and Professor Michael Beurskens (University of Passau), will provide insights into the complex challenges and far-reaching implications of European AI regulation from their respective national perspectives. The event will be officially opened by the French Consul General in Munich, Alexandre Vulic, which emphasises the European dimension and importance of the topic.
The ‘AI Regulation (EU) 2024/1689’ is intended to create standardised, cross-sector requirements across Europe for the design and use of artificial intelligence systems and for the provision of AI models with a general purpose. The first regulations have already come into force as part of the staggered transition periods, while other requirements will apply shortly. Although the regulation applies directly in all EU member states without further implementation, key parts of it require enforcement by national authorities. Their resources, expertise and administrative practice will therefore largely determine the practical significance of the regulation. In addition, many regulations have been deliberately formulated in a technology-neutral and open manner so that they are open to interpretation - until binding clarification by the ECJ, the respective understanding in the individual member states will be decisive.
In a lively discussion between Professor Dogot and Professor Beurskens, various facets of the AI Act and its impact on business, research and politics in Europe will be discussed. The discussion will also focus on the different perspectives and approaches of Germany and France in the application and enforcement of EU regulations. Researchers, students and all interested parties are expressly invited to actively participate in the discussion, ask questions on legal, social, economic or political aspects and contribute their own experiences, concerns and expectations. The aim of the event is an open exchange that makes the diversity of European perspectives visible.
Take the opportunity to find out first-hand about the requirements of the AI Regulation that affect everyone, to talk to recognised experts and to actively shape the debate. The event will be held in English. Registration is not required; participation is open to all.
