Sweden has enacted laws and/or issued guidance on Artificial Intelligence (AI). Companies subject to Swedish laws and regulations should be familiar with all relevant AI-related laws, regulations, and guidance, including those listed below.
The AI Act establishes harmonized rules for placing on the market, putting into service, and using artificial intelligence systems (“AI Systems”) in the European Union. It prohibits certain AI practices and establishes specific requirements for high-risk AI Systems and operators of such systems, rules on market monitoring, market surveillance governance and enforcement, and measures to support innovation, with a particular focus on SMEs, including start-ups.
Guidance issued by the Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection (IMY) provides a technical description of AI and explains how to determine when the GDPR applies to the development or use of AI.
