Series: Germany's Platform for Artificial Intelligence
Published: 09 October 2023

Artificial intelligence (AI) can make an important contribution to a sustainable economy and society – be it through optimized business processes or products that promise personalized healthcare, safe road traffic or better educational opportunities. However, companies are currently still reluctant to use AI. The frequently cited reason: the data protection hurdles seem too high. The white paper shows technical approaches that ensure privacy and data protection in the development and use of AI systems. The authors call for legal recognition of the procedures in order to strengthen legal certainty for companies when using AI.
