Hungarian media authority: 2024 defining year for regulating AI

The head of the National Media and Infocommunications Authority (NMHH) said on Monday that 2024 will be the year of regulating AI (artificial intelligence).

Regulating AI

András Koltay told an international AI symposium Humans in Charge 2024, organised by NMHH, that AI offered great potential while also carried risks, so an environment must be created whereby innovation is combined with the responsible use of AI.

Kay Firth-Butterfield, chief executive of Good Tech Advisory, said ideas that improve society must be encouraged, and it is also important to preserve diversity.

Mario Hernandez Ramos, chair of the Council of Europe’s Committee on Artificial Intelligence, argued that AI must remain human-focused and that a global dialogue on its use and development is needed.

Ansgar Koene, Global AI Ethics and Regulatory Leader at EY, welcomed the United Nations’s start to a discussion of opinions on the subject.

György Tilesch, founder and president of PHI Institute for Augmented Intelligence, said institutions and communities focused on AI must be developed. “Resources need to be concentrated at an unprecedented level,” he added.

Brando Benifei, MEP and EU AI Act Co-Rapporteur, said the appearance of AI was “more horizontal” and had a broader effect than the internet had. “It is like electricity; it will rewrite everything,” he added.
