Employees of European companies can report suspected breaches of the EU AI Act, but this possibility is still relatively unknown. What does this mean for whistleblowers, and how are they protected?
In this webinar, Jennifer Gibson (Psst.org) and Professor Simon Gerdemann discuss the EU AI Office’s reporting channel, whistleblower protection in Europe and the US, and the growing role of AI in both submitting and handling whistleblower reports.
The discussion is moderated by Geert Vermeulen, founder of The Integrity Coordinator.
