This talk examines the main provisions of the AI Act, analysing its risk-based approach and the implications for developers, vendors and users of AI systems. Implementation challenges will be discussed, with a focus on requirements for high-risk systems and prohibited practices. The opportunities the AI Act offers to promote responsible innovation, increase consumer trust and establish global standards for ethical AI will also be explored. Finally, the potential impact of the AI Act beyond EU borders and its role in shaping the future of AI governance internationally will be reflected upon.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-small-font-size\"><strong>17:30-18:00 CET<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-header-gradient-color has-text-color\"><strong>SESSION 1: Generative &amp; Conversational AI<\/strong><br>Chair: Lucia Siciliani<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>17:30-17:45 &#8211; Lucrezia Laraspata, Fabio Cardilli, Giovanna Castellano and Gennaro Vessio. <br><strong>Enhancing human capital management through GPT-driven questionnaire generation<\/strong> [<a href=\"https:\/\/uniroma2-my.sharepoint.com\/:b:\/g\/personal\/claudiudaniel_hromei_alumni_uniroma2_eu\/EQn1_ibX2PRIiH9knF7fisUBYmTQpygq0MWaRKntADw6AA?e=Mjm5Ud\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">paper<\/a>]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>17:45-18:00 &#8211; Diego Gosmar, Deborah A.
