Join the survey: How to regulate Artificial Intelligence in Europe?

While preparing a larger academic paper on regulating #AI and #robots in #Europe and #Germany (and other regions), I have designed a questionnaire and published it on #EUSurvey.

I would like to learn more about how the internet users are perceiving this topic, whether there are common definitions, whom you see as most important actors, which issues there are on the agenda already, and which alternatives are being prepared.

I would be very grateful for your responses at
https://ec.europa.eu/eusurvey/runner/Weidemann-EU-AI-2019.

Of course, you may also feel free to contact me directly at j.weidemann@ieu-monitoring.com.

Looking forward to hearing from you!
