Commission launches whistleblower tool for AI Act
The European Commission has launched a whistleblower tool for the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Act. The tool will provide a secure and confidential channel for individuals to report suspected breaches of the AI Act directly to the EU AI Office, the centre of AI expertise within the Commission.
Whistleblowers can provide relevant information in any of the EU official languages, and in any relevant format. The tool offers a secure way to report potential violations of the law that could endanger fundamental rights, health, or public trust. The highest level of confidentiality and data protection are guaranteed through certified encryption mechanisms. This system enables secure follow-up, allowing whistleblowers to receive updates on the progress of their report and the possibility to respond to additional questions from the AI Office, without compromising their anonymity.
The EU AI Act aims to promote the innovation and uptake of AI in the EU, while addressing potential risks to people's health, safety, and fundamental rights and safeguarding democracy and the rule of law. By reporting information about violations, whistleblowers can support the AI Office in detecting them early on, therefore contributing to the safe and transparent development of AI technologies.
