Our brief take on what the new UK Data (Use and Access) Act will mean in practice. A departure from the #GDPR as we know it..? Not really. www.hoganlovells.com/en/publicati...

We devoted our usual Thursday DPaC London team training session today to the newly agreed Data (Use and Access) Act with the aim of identifying any changes that could realistically affect UK’s adequacy. Frankly we couldn’t find anything that departs from how the EU #GDPR works in practice today.

It’s taken a few years but recent experience involving the proposed deployment of #AI tools across all imaginable functions is turning data protection impact assessments (DPIAs) into one of the success stories of the #GDPR. Let me elaborate. Mini-🧵

While this will likely be a topic for discussion at the forthcoming #G7 Summit, let’s not forget that the same building blocks can serve as a basis for organisational responsible #AI strategies. www.linkedin.com/pulse/way-fo...

Just watching the debate of the UK Data (Use and Access) Bill and it’s interesting that all the discussion so far is on what is not really the focus of the Bill: copyright & #AI. The Government is adamant to emphasise that the creative & technology industries need to reach a practical compromise.

To the delight of some and the frustration of others, @consilium.europa.eu plan of action for simplification of activities in digital regulations does not suggest dismantling frameworks like the GDPR or reversing laws like the AI Act. data.consilium.europa.eu/doc/document...

This is one of the most positive geopolitical developments of the recent months. The fact that all of these very diverse countries are constructively building a global baseline for the protection of personal data should not be underestimated.💡 www.hoganlovells.com/en/publicati...

“We shouldn’t be afraid of changing regulation to address the evolving nature of technology” wisely says EDPS Wojciech Wiewiorowski at #CPDP2025, stressing that the important thing is that the principles aimed at protecting fundamental rights remain.

The #AI Act is meant to add value to the #AI ecosystem, not to create bureaucracy, compellingly argues @ec.europa.eu #AI Office Head Kilian Gross at #CPDP2025 putting efficiency alongside a high level of protection.

THANKS!!! @ec.europa.eu #AI Office Head Kilian Gross for dismissing at #CPDP2025 a wrong and long held myth that the #AI Act is product safety regulation. It is not, he says, emphasising that it is a framework essentially designed to protect fundamental rights.

This is obviously a very positive development for many reasons, but also because it enhances the trust needed to discuss other common issues that every European country wants to get right, like the most effective approach to data & #AI regulation. Mini-🧵 www.gov.uk/government/p...

As #AI governance becomes more and more topical (as seen at #AIGG25 and at two separate events I’m contributing to in Brussels and London this coming week), I’m resurfacing this brief piece I wrote a year ago about how to pitch #AI governance to decision makers. www.linkedin.com/pulse/why-ai...

Who in the audience says “please” and “thank you” when interacting with Chat-GPT? Everyone raises their hand. A revealing reflection at #AIG25 about our behaviour towards #AI when interacting with it. (BTW, glad to know I’m not a weirdo saying “please” and “thank you” to a machine…)

Interesting point being made at #AIGG25 panel on prompt engineering about how the correct use of prompts should be part of the #AI literacy efforts that all deployers of #AI are making.
