Article 102 Amendment to Regulation (EC) No 300/2008
Summary What does Article 102 of the AI act regulation say?
This is an amendment article, making a targeted change to existing aviation security legislation — specifically Regulation (EC) No 300/2008, which governs civil aviation security.
It inserts a new obligation into that regulation requiring that when the Commission adopts detailed technical specifications and procedures for the approval and use of security equipment that qualifies as an AI system under the AI Act, the high-risk AI system requirements set out in Chapter III, Section 2 of the AI Act must be taken into account.
In essence, it bridges the AI Act with the civil aviation security framework, ensuring the two regimes are applied in a coordinated way.
Important points:
- The Commission is required to take into account the AI Act's Chapter III, Section 2 requirements when adopting technical measures on AI-based security equipment under aviation security rules.
- This article amends Regulation (EC) No 300/2008, integrating AI Act obligations into the existing civil aviation security legislative framework.
- The article forms part of a series of similar amendment articles in the AI Act designed to align sectoral Union legislation with the AI Act's requirements for high-risk AI systems.
