The Artificial Intelligence Regulation requires organizations and companies to conduct an impact assessment on fundamental rights before implementing a high-risk AI system. To help with this, the Catalan Data Protection Authority has developed the Catalan FRIA Model. This model provides a pioneering methodology that guides the responsible party step by step and has been tested with real use cases. In this session, we will share the Catalan FRIA Model and its usefulness for all types of entities, from those who design and develop AI systems to those responsible for their deployment (deployers).
