Zusammenfassung
The European Artificial Intelligence Act (AI Act) has entered into force with its primary goal to promote the development and adoption of safe and trustworthy AI systems within the EU's single market. It sets up a new governance framework that enables coordination and support for the implementation of this regulation at the national level, while also building capabilities at the Union level, such as the AI Office and the AI Board. In this framework, the AI Act forces the Member States to designate supervisory authorities in charge of implementing the legislative, product-related requirements. Their supervisory function could build on existing arrangements established by the New Legislative Framework, for example regarding conformity assessment bodies and market surveillance institutions. Legal metrology is the application of legal requirements to measurements and measuring instruments, a practice that has been successfully followed for decades within the New Legislative Framework. The AI Act pertains explicitly to legal metrology. It refers to the use of AI models in recognized areas of legal metrology such as critical infrastructures and law enforcement. Consequently, it seems appropriate to provide insight into the AI Act and its terminology, and explore the impact of this new European regulation on legal metrology and how the AI-based software systems defined by the AI Act could be tackled with the existing requirements for software in measuring instruments
