The EU AI Act An Overview for Irish Enterprises

BRIEFING EU Legislation in Progress EPRS | European Parliamentary Research Service Artificial intelligence act OVERVIEW European Union lawmakers signed the artificial intelligence (AI) act in June 2024. The AI act, the first binding worldwide horizontal regulation on AI, sets a common framework for the use and supply of AI systems in the EU. The new act offers a classification for AI systems with different requirements and obligations tailored to a 'risk-based approach'. Some AI systems presenting 'unacceptable' risks are prohibited. A wide range of 'high-risk' AI systems that can have a detrimental impact on people's health, safety or on their fundamental rights are authorised, but subject to a set of requirements and obligations to gain access to the EU market. AI systems posing limited risks because of their lack of transparency will be subject to information and transparency requirements, while AI systems presenting only minimal risk for people will not be subject to further obligations. The regulation also lays down specific rules for general purpose AI (GPAI) models and lays down more stringent requirements for GPAI models with 'high-impact capabilities' that could pose a systemic risk and have a significant impact on the internal market.

How can we refresh Power Queries in Excel Online

In this Podcast our two hosts discuss how you can have a table of data connected to Dataverse refreshing in Excel online. That is, without the need for it to be opened in Excel for Desktop. If you have a workbook shared amongst many people all through the day and night you will find there are data conflicts between the users which becomes especially obvious when the workbook is opened in desktop. Sometimes data is lost. Occasionally and not that infrequently the workbook crashes or breaks entirely. The workbook becoming corrupted and unrecoverable. Keeping the workbook online minimizes these sharing problems. Currently Microsoft does not provide for refreshing of power queries in online mode only.
