What you didn’t know about responsible AI

Vincent Slot, Team Lead R&D/Research Engineer, Textkernel and Jaap Kersten, Inernational Legal Counsel, Textkernel, Daniel Gray, Associate, Mishcon de Reya

Rapidly developing developments in the field of Artificial Intelligence have opened up many new opportunities. However, as AI systems become more powerful, they also become more complex and intransparent. When used irresponsibly this technology has the potential to disadvantage individuals or even society as a whole. The EU AI Act introduces a legal framework for addressing this risk.


How can we ensure that AI has a positive impact and mitigate bias in the recruitment and HR industry? How can we use AI to make hiring more inclusive and diverse? What will be the impact of the EU AI Act?

In this webinar you'll learn why these are important questions to ask, and what the AI Act will mean for your business.
