New scientific article published in Genealogy+Critique

A new article, informed by DIACOMET research, has been published in Genealogy+Critique. The study explores how ethical values and principles are reflected in the European Union’s legal framework for artificial intelligence.

The article analyses six key EU instruments relevant to AI governance, including the AI Act, GDPR, Digital Services Act, Data Governance Act, Data Act, and DSM Directive. It shows that values such as non-maleficence, fairness, and privacy form the strongest enforceable ethical core of EU AI regulation, while principles such as democracy, solidarity, and sustainability remain less firmly embedded in binding legal provisions.

The publication highlights an important tension between the EU’s ambition to lead in human-centric, ethics-based AI governance and the selective way ethical commitments are translated into law.
