European Parliament members Arba Kokalari and Michael McNamara are set to address the media in a press conference concerning the latest negotiations on updating EU artificial intelligence regulations. This event follows the recent trilogue discussions with the Council, aiming to amend the Artificial Intelligence Act to enhance flexibility and support for small to mid-sized businesses, while also addressing high-risk AI systems and potential bans on AI nudification technologies.

The press conference is scheduled for Wednesday, April 29, at 11:00 CEST in the European Parliament’s Daphne Caruana Galizia room in Strasbourg. Media can attend in person or connect remotely via supported platforms like Safari on iPad and Google Chrome on Mac or Windows. The discussions are crucial as they precede the expected enforcement of the new regulations before August.

In addition to live attendance, the press conference will be webstreamed and recorded, accessible through the Parliament’s Multimedia Centre. Interpretation services will be available in multiple languages including English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, and Swedish, ensuring accessibility for a diverse European audience.
