Certifications and Regulations for AI: A European vs US Approach
Certifications and regulations for AI differ between Europe and the US. In Europe, there is a proposed regulation that would require AI systems to be assessed and certified if they fall into certain risk levels. This would involve an independent body granting a European conformity stamp. In the US, certifications and regulations are often tied to federal dollars, particularly in sectors such as healthcare. There may be voluntary accreditation and certification in the US, aligning with the political philosophy of self-regulation. However, legislation is necessary when AI is imposed on individuals and making decisions about their lives. In such cases, someone will need to determine if the AI system passes muster.
