 Digital Competences and the AI Act – Why digital skills matter in regulatory legislation – ALL DIGITAL’s reaction to the political agreement on the AI Act

The political agreement between the European Parliament and the European Council on 8 December marked a major step towards the adoption of the AI Act, the European law on artificial intelligence.

ALL DIGITAL supports these efforts to regulate the use of AI in line with European values.

However, the crucial role of digital skills in this context is underestimated. To fill this gap, ALL DIGITAL presents 10 considerations on the role of digital skills in AI regulation, highlighting in particular the protection of fundamental rights, informed decision-making and the promotion of responsible innovation. These skills are essential for the effective implementation of the AI Act and to ensure that AI technologies benefit society as a whole.
