Artificial Intelligence and EU law Enforcement: A Bottom-Up Approach

Abstract

Technological disruption is drastically changing the way rules are made and applied. This special section, consisting of five articles, is dedicated to exploring the impact of automated decision-making (ADM), and in particular artificial intelligence (AI) systems, on the enforcement of EU law. To this end, rather than deriving legal requirements from general doctrines and principles of EU law (top-down), these articles explore how the promises and threats of AI systems arise and are addressed in different policy areas of EU law enforcement (bottom-up), namely in the fields of tax law, the law enforcement Directive, competition, migration, and asylum.
