Application Transformation Services – Europe

As customers’ needs evolve and businesses strive for greater efficiency, the importance of application transformation has substantially increased for enterprises.

Furthermore, there is a persistent emphasis on sustainability, compliance, and regulatory adherence.

In response, service providers are enhancing their offerings through strategic partnerships with technology and platform providers and developing IPs to maximize RoI and gain enterprise confidence.

EU Parliament Approves AI Act: Food Manufacturers Face Smooth Transition but Consumers Left Exposed | In the News

March 14, 2024

The European Parliament voted overwhelmingly in favor of the EU AI Act. The impacts of this new law on food manufacturers will likely be relatively minimal as the industry’s current use of AI systems will mostly fall into the “Limited risk” category. However, the European Consumer Organisation (BEUC) warns consumers remain insufficiently protected by the AI Act.

EU countries are set to approve the AI Act in May, but the law will not apply until 2026. This two-year implementation period creates problems, according to Nitish Mittal, Partner at Everest Group, as the law could become outdated.

EU AI Act Sets Global Standard for Managing AI | In the News

March 13, 2024

The European Parliament passed some of the world’s first comprehensive AI regulations Wednesday, meaning that enterprise businesses will need to start taking steps toward compliance. The European Union’s AI Act regulates the technology by placing AI models into buckets of risk ranging from minimal risk to unacceptable risk.

The risk-based approach outlined in the EU AI Act is “unique,” said Nitish Mittal, Partner at Everest Group. The approach addresses some of the AI paranoia attached to the growing use of large language models.

AI Act Gets Final Nod in European Parliament: Does It Go Far Enough? | In the News

March 13, 2024

The European Parliament passed the AI Act, with the landmark ruling setting the standards for AI governance in the European Union. But does it go too far, or not far enough?

Nitish Mittal, Partner at Everest Group, said “There are concerns about how the EU AI Act might prevent exponential innovation in AI in Europe, compared to the strides being made by US and Chinese companies and governments”. Mittal also agreed that the AI Act’s risk management framework is “nuanced, as it looks at risks throughout the design and development process, considering impacts on safety, privacy, and fundamental rights.”

The European Union on Wednesday passed its sweeping AI Act, which will establish tough guidelines and penalties for businesses using artificial intelligence.

“This law is the most definitive stab at governing this AI monster,” Nitish Mittal, Partner with Everest Group, tells InformationWeek in an interview. “I believe this is going to have a ‘halo effect’ for other regions. GDPR deals with a very specific point around data privacy. But AI is such a big, broad existential issue for our society and businesses right now, every country is trying to see what they can do to get inspired by this law in some shape or form,” he added.
