MEPs probe Commission about AI Office recruitment strategy

 

Three members of the European Parliament have sent formal questions to the Commission about the recruitment process for the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Office, tasked with implementing the EU’s landmark law on technology, Euractiv understands.
