The Italian artificial intelligence strategy under consultation

The Italian strategy on artificial intelligence is now subject to a consultation proceeding to fine-tune its contents and finalize the actions to be taken. In April 2018, the European Commission published a proposal for a European strategy for AI in a communication entitled "Artificial Intelligence for Europe". Based on the strategy outlined above, the European Commission issued a Coordinated Plan on Artificial Intelligence, launching a European Artificial Intelligence Alliance and setting up an expert group on AI. The latter has the goal of defining the ethical guidelines and investment policies for artificial intelligence in Europe. An essential step required by the above-mentioned Coordinated Plan on Artificial Intelligence is that each EU Member State develops national AI strategies, outlining investment levels and implementation measures.
