Join DataScientest and Kai Zenner, Head of Office and Digital Policy Adviser for MEP Axel Voss (European People’s Party Group) in the European Parliament, for an insightful webinar exploring the "Concept of the AI Act and its Practical Application." Describing himself as a digital enthusiast, Kai Zenner focuses on AI, data, and the EU’s digital transition. Currently deeply involved in political negotiations on crucial legislation such as the AI Act, AI liability directive, e-privacy regulation, and GDPR revision, Kai Zenner brings unparalleled expertise to the discussion.

With a background in both political science (M.Sc. at University of Edinburgh, B.A. at University of Bremen) and law (State Exam at University of Münster), Kai Zenner combines academic rigor with practical experience. Before his tenure in the European Parliament, he worked as a research associate at the European office of the Konrad Adenauer Foundation in Brussels.

In this webinar, Kai Zenner will guide participants through the regulatory landscape shaping the future of artificial intelligence, offering practical insights into implementation and compliance.

Whether you're a policymaker, industry professional, or tech enthusiast, don't miss this opportunity to gain valuable perspectives on AI governance from Kai Zenner's wealth of knowledge and experience.

Kai Zenner has been working on the EI AI Act for a while, and we chat about his perspective on its evolution, challenges, and potential. Along the way, we discuss why the EU AI Act differs from GDPR, why regulating a quasi-global piece of legislation is very difficult, and much more.

I admit, politics and regulation are way outside my wheelhouse, and I learned a ton in this discussion. Given the impact the EU AI Act will affect the work of everyone involved with data, I think you'll learn a thing or two about not just the act itself, but also how the "sausage is made", so to speak. Enjoy!
