IAIL 2025 - The Fourth Workshop on IMAGINING THE AI LANDSCAPE AFTER THE AI
ACT: Bridging the AI Act and the Digital Services Act

http://iail2025.isti.cnr.it/



OVERVIEW OF THE WORKSHOP

The regulation of Artificial Intelligence is at an important stage, with
the European Union taking the lead through key legislative frameworks such
as the AI Act (AIA) and the Digital Services Act (DSA). These regulations
aim to create a safer and more accountable digital environment while
safeguarding fundamental rights. However, while the European Union has
outlined a clear direction in terms of regulation, their practical
implementation remains an open challenge. In particular, the interaction
between these two frameworks requires closer examination to understand how
they address the risks AI poses to fundamental rights, such as privacy,
non-discrimination, and freedom of expression.

The primary objective of this workshop is to provide the community with a
deeper understanding of the AIA and DSA, their implications for AI
development and deployment, and their alignment with human rights
principles. Through dedicated discussion sessions and keynote speakers, we
aim to critically analyze what these regulations achieve and the new
challenges they pose from an implementation perspective. A key focus of the
workshop will be to explore how these regulations can be made operational,
identifying the tools and technologies required to support their
implementation and defining the objectives these tools should address.

Submitted applications can include regular papers, short papers, working
papers and/or extended abstracts.
