| Description | Until recently, the use of artificial intelligence in the Czech government was limited to chatbots communicating with clients and internal analyses. More sophisticated applications require a solid foundation in prior informatisation and digitisation, which remains perfunctory in Czechia, according to international assessments. In addition, the legal uncertainty surrounding artificial intelligence decision-making calls for a national legislative response. Specifically, it should address (de)personalisation, verifiability and the use of personal data as input in machine learning. The European Union’s Artificial Intelligence Act is not sufficient in this regard. |
