The European AI Office announced two upcoming events on 12 October 2026 and 02 October 2026. The first event, EU Code Week 2026, will enhance digital skills in the context of artificial intelligence. The second event is the Europeana conference in Dublin, exploring cultural heritage and public AI.
The European AI Office supports the implementation of the AI Act, particularly for general-purpose AI, as established by the AI Act. The office plays a key role in ensuring compliance and enforcing rules related to AI models.
The events apply to the general public, particularly those interested in AI development and deployment. Stakeholders in the AI sector are encouraged to participate to stay informed about developments and best practices.
No specific deadlines or transitional periods are mentioned for these events. The announcement serves as an invitation for participation rather than a regulatory requirement.
The AI Office aims to foster an innovative ecosystem of trustworthy AI, contributing to societal and economic benefits across the EU. These events reflect the EU's commitment to enhancing understanding of AI's implications.
