With the characteristics of a general-purpose technology, artificial intelligence (AI) is one of the most disruptive sets of technologies at the service of research and innovation. It acts as a catalyst for scientific breakthroughs and is rapidly becoming a key instrument in the scientific process in all research areas.
On April 15, the EU Scientific Advice Mechanism (SAM) will release its advice on how the European Commission can accelerate the responsible take-up of AI in science in the EU. The release of the evidence review report and policy recommendations will be marked by a ceremony in the presence of EVP Vestager and Commissioner Ivanova.

Description
The SAM advice focusses on a responsible uptake of AI in science (including providing access to high-quality AI and respecting European values) in order to boost innovation and prosperity in the EU, while strengthening the position of Europe in science.
The SAM includes the Science Advice for Policy by European Academies (SAPEA) consortium, which gathers expertise from more than 100 institutions across Europe, and the Group of Chief Scientific Advisors (GSCA), who provides independent guidance informed by the evidence.
