Dr. Dan McQuillan:

I will have a crack at that question. I have read some of the omnibus and it probably goes without saying that I am deeply concerned, if only because the AI Act itself was a set of compromises that really started from the point of view of product safety rather than human or civil rights or any other broader set of values. It was already a lesser way of dealing with AI and it is turning out to be a bit of a paper tiger in practice. It is a very pivotal moment for any government to think about how to deal with AI because the cover that might have been provided by something like the AI Act is clearly not going to hold.
