AI Governance

The Data Protection Commission (DPC) has issued a detailed update on its ongoing engagement with Meta regarding its use of personal data to train Large Language Models (LLMs) in the EU/EEA. As AI technologies continue to evolve at a rapid pace, the DPC has been working with major technology companies to ensure that personal data is processed in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This regulatory oversight is essential in mitigating risks to individuals and protecting data subjects' rights within the context of cutting-edge AI development.

UnitedHealth Group is making waves in the healthcare sector with the launch of 1,000 artificial intelligence (AI) applications across its insurance, health services, and pharmacy units. This ambitious move, originally reported by the Wall Street Journal, to integrate AI into core business operations is a game-changer for the industry, offering potential to streamline workflows, enhance the customer experience, and support medical decision-making. However, as AI continues to shape the future of healthcare, its governance remains a critical concern, particularly when it comes to claims processing, data privacy, and ethical considerations.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is no longer a distant promise, it’s here, and it’s making waves across businesses of all kinds.

These leaders aren’t just making decisions for today, they’re laying the groundwork for the future of AI in business.

Ireland’s privacy watchdog has questions, and they’re pointed squarely at Elon Musk’s X. On Thursday, the Irish Data Protection Commission (DPC) announced the launch of a formal inquiry into X Internet Unlimited Company (XIUC), the newly named data controller for X’s EU user base. The central issue? Whether publicly accessible posts by European users have been quietly fed into the company’s generative AI system, Grok, without proper legal basis.

As technology evolves, so do the tactics of fraudsters. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission’s (CFTC) Office of Customer Education and Outreach (OCEO) has issued a timely warning about a growing threat: criminals are using generative artificial intelligence (AI) to create fraud that’s increasingly difficult to detect. In its latest advisory, Criminals Increasing Use of Generative AI to Commit Fraud, the OCEO highlights how this emerging technology is making it easier than ever for bad actors to create fake identities, convincing social media profiles, and even fraudulent financial platforms—posing significant risks to consumers and businesses alike.

The French Financial Markets Authority (AMF) is leading the charge in using technology to ease the burden of financial market supervision. Over the past couple of years, the AMF has been delving into the world of artificial intelligence (AI), testing how well these tools can automate the processing of regulatory data. This isn’t just about keeping pace with innovation—it’s about creating a smarter, more efficient system for overseeing a rapidly expanding regulatory landscape.
