Description
European AI regulation is already changing how organisations work with data and language technologies. This practical workshop explores the current legal framework established by the AI Act and examines how it applies to organisations’ day-to-day activities through a roundtable discussion with partner organisations. Participants will share their first-hand experience of data sharing and intellectual property, data protection and anonymisation, and the use of corporate data with AI models. Time will also be set aside for questions and discussion with the audience.

Roundtable
Euskorpora will present the legal challenges it faces when working with linguistic data, while participating organisations will explain how they address these issues in their day-to-day work. Topics will include how data sharing and ownership are agreed, when and how data should be anonymised, what changes when organisations train or use AI models with their own data, and how the AI Act is applied in practice. The audience will then have the opportunity to ask questions and share their own experience.
